Explanation

Total investment ratio A:B:C = 55000:65000:75000 = 11:13:15. Total profit = P. A gets 20% as working allowance = 0.2P. Remaining profit = 0.8P distributed in 11:13:15 ratio. C's share from remaining = (15/39) × 0.8P = 0.8P × 5/13. C's total = 27000 = 0.8P × 5/13. Solving: 27000 × 13 = 0.8P × 5; 351000 = 4P; P = 87750. Total profit is Rs. 87750.
