1Rs. 7500
2Rs. 8000
3Rs. 8500
4Rs. 9000

Answer:- 1

Explanation:-

Solution:

\begin{aligned} Let B's capital be R s . x \\ Then, (\frac{3500 \times 12}{7 x} = \frac{2}{3}) \\ \Rightarrow 14 x = 126000 \\ \Rightarrow x = 9000 \end{aligned}

$\eqalign{ & {\text{Let}}\,{\text{B's}}\,{\text{capital}}\,{\text{be}}\,Rs.\,x \cr & {\text{Then}},\,\left( {\frac{{3500 \times 12}}{{7x}} = \frac{2}{3}} \right) \cr & \Rightarrow 14x = 126000 \cr & \Rightarrow x = 9000 \cr}$
