Feedback Let initial investment of A is 3x and B is 5x, then C investment is also 5x, but most important to note in this question is the time duration of investment
Like, A invested for 12 months, B invested for 12 months and C invested for 6 months.
A:B:C =(3x*12):(5x*12):(5x*6)
= 36:60:30
= 6:10:5
