 Given:

- Capital of A: ₹80,000

- Capital of B: ₹40,000

- Profit-sharing ratio: 3:2

- Total profit for the year: ₹25,000


 Step-by-Step Calculation:

 Step 1: Calculate the total parts in the profit-sharing ratio

\[ \text{Total parts} = 3 + 2 = 5 \]

Step 2: Calculate the profit share of each partner

Profit share of A:

\[ \text{A's share} = \frac{3}{5} \times 25,000 = \frac{3 \times 25,000}{5} = \frac{75,000}{5} = 15,000 \]

Profit share of B:

\[ \text{B's share} = \frac{2}{5} \times 25,000 = \frac{2 \times 25,000}{5} = \frac{50,000}{5} = 10,000 \]


Step 3: Represent the distribution clearly

Distribution of profit:

- A's share of profit: ₹15,000

- B's share of profit: ₹10,000


 Final representation:

Partner A:

- Capital: ₹80,000

- Profit Share: ₹15,000

Partner B:

- Capital: ₹40,000

- Profit Share: ₹10,000


 Summary:

- Total Profit for the year: ₹25,000

- A's share (3/5 of total profit): ₹15,000

- B's share (2/5 of total profit): ₹10,000


Thus, the profit of ₹25,000 is distributed between A and B as ₹15,000 and ₹10,000 respectively, based on their profit-sharing ratio of 3:2.
