and A's share is Rs. 855, the total profit is:​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the total profit be Rs. 100.

After paying to charity, A's share = (95*3/5) = Rs. 57.

If A's share is Rs. 57, total profit = Rs. 100.

If A's share is Rs. 855, total profit = (100/57*855) = 1500.

therefore , the answer is 1500.
