A Correct answer
Explanation

In partnership, profit is distributed in proportion to the product of capital invested and time period. A's investment-time product is 2×3=6, B's is 3×4=12, giving ratio 6:12 or 1:2. A's share = 4500 × 1/(1+2) = 1500. Options B, C, D are incorrect as they don't match this calculation.
