Solution(By Apex Team)
$\begin{array}{l}\text{Investment of A =1000}&&\\
\text{So, investment of B+C}&&\\
\text{=6000-1000}&&\\
\text{=5000}&&\\
\text{B:C=5000}&&\\
\text{2:3=2000:3000}&&\\
\text{So,}\end{array}$
$\begin{array}{c}\mathrm{A}:\quad\mathrm{B}:\mathrm{C}&\\
1000:2000:3000&\\
1:2\quad:3=6&\\
\therefore\text{ Profit of }\mathrm{C}&=\frac{3}{6}\times2400\\
&=1200\end{array}$
