Solution(By Apex Team)
Total capital invested by A in 1 year
$\begin{array}{l}
=12 \times 4000 \\
=\text { Rs. } 48000
\end{array}$
Total capital invested by B in 1 year
$\begin{array}{l}
=4 \times 6000+8 \times 8000 \\
=24000+64000 \\
=\text { Rs. } 88000
\end{array}$
Total capital invested by C in 1 year
$\begin{array}{l}
=9 \times 8000+3 \times 6000 \\
=72000+18000 \\
=\text { Rs. } 90000
\end{array}$
$\begin{array}{ccc}&\text{ A}&:&\text{B}&:&\text{C}\\
\text{ Capital}\longrightarrow&48000&:&88000&:&90000\\
&24&:&44&:&45\end{array}$
According to the question,
$\begin{array}{l}\begin{array}{l}(24+44+45)\text{ units }=\text{ Rs. }16950\\
113\text{ units }=\text{ Rs. }16950\\
1\text{ unit }=\frac{16950}{113}=\text{ Rs. }150\end{array}\\
\text{ Hence, }\\
\text{ Profit of }\mathrm{A}=150\times24\\
\begin{aligned}&=\text{ Rs. }3600\\
\text{ Profit of }\mathrm{B}&=150\times44\\
&=\mathrm{Rs}.6600\\
\text{ Profit of }\mathrm{C}&=150\times45\\
&=\mathrm{Rs}.6750\end{aligned}\end{array}$
