Question

‘A’ and 'B' began a business with Rs. 3500 and Rs. 2500 respectively. After 4
months ‘C'joined with Rs. 6000. If the difference of share between “C' and 'B'
is Rs. 1977, then find out the total annual income?
A. Rs. 15620
B. Rs. 16240
C. Rs. 12770
D. Rs. 13180​

Answer 1

as under:

A:B:C=3500 : 2500 : 6000

Income of 3500+2500+6000

(or 12000) would be distributed

like this

A 3500

B 2500

C 6000

Here diff in incomes of B and C

=6000-2500

=3500

But if diff was 1977

total income would be

(1977/3500)*12000

=0.5648*12000

=6778.28......ANSWER

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Description for Correct answer:

Ratio of equivalent capitals of A, B and C for 1 month

= (3500 x 12) : (2500 x 12) :

(6000 x 8)

= 35 x 12 : 25 : 60 x 8

= 7 : 5 : 8

Sum of the terms of the ratio = 7 + 5 + 8 = 20

According to the question, If the total annual profit be Rs.x, then difference of shares of C and B = Rs.1977

=> (8/20 - 5/20)x =1977

=> 3x/20 = 1977

=> 3x = 1977 x 20

=> x=1977 x 20/3

= Rs.13180
