Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Total investment = Rs 360000 Profit earned = 12% ∴ Total profit = 12% of 360000 = 12/100 x 360000 = Rs 43200 Proportion of investment = 3 : 4 : 7 : 6 Let the investment of Jaya, Seema, Nikhil and Neelesh be Rs 3x, Rs 4x, Rs 7x and Rs 6x respectively. 3x + 4x + 7x + 6x = 360000 ∴ 20x = 360000 ∴ x = 360000/20 = 18000 ∴ Jaya’s investment = 3x = 3 x 18000 = Rs 54000 Also, profit made by them is Rs 43200 ∴ 3x + 4x + 7x + 6x = 43200 ∴ 20x = 43200 ∴ x = 43200/20 = 2160 ∴ Nikhil’s profit = 7x = 7 x 2160 = Rs 15120
Step-by-step explanation:
Proportion of share =2:3
all profit =6500
6500/2 =3250 each profit
therefore Jaya share of profit =3250
Seema share of profit =3250
