A and B invested Rs.3000 and Rs.2000 respectively in a partnership business in which A was sleeping partner. At the end of one month both received Rs.150 each as profit. Find B’s remuneration for his work?

so according to their investment their share is (A=180 and B=120) since A was a sleeping partner and B's salary for work is not given so how did we decide to give B 50 Rs

Question:
A and B invested Rs.3000 and Rs.2000 respectively in a partnership business in which A was sleeping partner. At the end of one month both received Rs.150 each as profit. Find B’s remuneration for his work?
Options:
A) Rs.50
B) Rs.30
C) Rs.60
D) Rs.40
E) None of these
Solution:
Ratio of A and B 3:2 or 60% and 40% profit.
Let the profit of A=3X and B=2X
B is less than A by X in ratio
3X + 2x+X = 300. So X=50
