Solution(By Apex Team)

A : B : C (5000 × 4 + 2500 × 8) : (4500 × 6 + 3000 × 6) : (7000 × 6) = 40000 : 45000 : 42000 = 40 : 45 : 42 $\begin{aligned}&\therefore\text{ A’s share }\\ &=\text{ Rs. }\left(5080\times\frac{40}{127}\right)\\ &=\text{ Rs. }1600\\ &\therefore\text{ B’s share }\\ &=\text{ Rs. }\left(5080\times\frac{45}{127}\right)\\ &=\text{ Rs. }1800\\ &\therefore\text{ C’s share }\\ &=\text{ Rs. }\left(5080\times\frac{42}{127}\right)\\ &=\text{ Rs. }1680\end{aligned}$
