This is a simple partnership (equal time for all three partners), so profit is divided in the ratio of the capitals.
Step 1 — form the capital ratio.
Step 2 — value of one part. The ratio has parts, so
Step 3 — each share.
Verification. The shares add to rupees (the full profit), and their ratio matches the capital ratio — both confirm the answer.
✓Final answer
A receives rupees, B receives rupees, and C receives rupees.
