    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

     and II give:

      

    K = Rs. (8000 x 9) for 1 month = Rs. 72000 for 1 month.

     

      N = Rs.[\( \frac { 1 } {4 } \)x8000x12]for 1 month = Rs. 24000 for 1 month.

     

      R = Rs. 48000 for 1 month.

     

     K : N : R = 72000 : 24000 : 48000 = 3 : 1 : 2.

     

    III gives, total profit = Rs. 1000.

     

     Rohit's share = Rs[1000x\(\frac { 2 } { 6 } \)]= Rs. 333\(\frac { 1 } { 3 } \)
