Solution

First, let's find out the individual investment of A, B, and C.

The total ratio of their investment is 3+4+5 = 12.

So, the individual investment of A = (3/12) * 4,60,000 = Rs. 1,15,000 The individual investment of B = (4/12) * 4,60,000 = Rs. 1,53,333.33 The individual investment of C = (5/12) * 4,60,000 = Rs. 1,91,666.67

The total profit earned was 40% of the total investment, which is 40/100 * 4,60,000 = Rs. 1,84,000

Now, let's find out the individual share of profit for A, B, and C.

The total ratio of their time period is 5+4+3 = 12.

So, the individual share of profit for A = (5/12) * 1,84,000 = Rs. 76,666.67 The individual share of profit for B = (4/12) * 1,84,000 = Rs. 61,333.33 The individual share of profit for C = (3/12) * 1,84,000 = Rs. 46,000

Therefore, the profit received by B is Rs. 61,333.33. However, this option is not available in the given options. There might be a mistake in the question or the options provided.
