A\: receives = 5 % of \: Rs. 7400 = Rs 370

balance= Rs\left ( 7400 - 370 \right )= Rs. 7030

Ratio \: of \: their\: investments = \left ( 6500\ast 6 \right ) : \left ( 8400 \ast 5 \right ) : \left ( 10000 \ast 3 \right )

                                                                    = 13 : 14 : 10

So, B's \: share = Rs. \left ( 7030\ast 14/37 \right ) = Rs. 2660
