Correct answer: (A) 12,424
Since profit is shared in the ratio of investments (both invested for the same one-year period), P:Q = 2300:4600 = 1:2. P's share = 37272*(1/3) = 12,424.

सही उत्तर: (A) 12,274
चूंकि लाभ निवेश के अनुपात में बांटा जाता है (दोनों ने समान एक वर्ष की अवधि के लिए निवेश किया), P:Q = 2300:4600 = 1:2 है। P का हिस्सा = 37272*(1/3) = 12,424 है।
