Solution
Ratio of profits =
=> $A : B : C = (10,400 \times 12) : (14,300 \times 12) : (9,100 \times 8)$
= $(104 \times 3) : (143 \times 3) : (91 \times 2)$
= $312 : 429 : 182 = 24 : 33 : 14$
Annual profit = Rs. 11,360
$\therefore$ Share of C in the profit = $\frac{14}{24 + 33 + 14} \times 11,360$
= $14 \times 160$ = Rs. $2,240$
