Answer 1

C invested approximately 5333.33 rs in the business.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount invested by C in the business, we need to set up a proportion based on the profit sharing ratios. Considering A's investment as 2400 rs and B's investment as 3600 rs, we can set up the proportion:

(2400 rs)/(3600 rs) = x/(8000 rs)

Simplifying the proportion, we get:

2400 rs * 8000 rs = 3600 rs * x

19200000 rs = 3600 rs * x

Dividing both sides by 3600 rs, we find that x = 19200000 rs / 3600 rs = 5333.33 rs

Therefore, C invested approximately 5333.33 rs in the business.
