Question

A and B invested some amount in a business in the ratio 2.3 If there is a profit of rupees 6,000, B will gain a profit of rupees​

Answer 1

Answer:

• B will gain a profit of rupees 3600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

• A and B invested some amount in a business in the ratio 2 : 3.
• There is a profit of rupees 6,000.

To Find:

• B will gain a profit of rupees

Let us assume:

• A invested amount = Rs 2x
• B invested amount = Rs 3x

Finding the profit of B:

According to the question.

⟶ 2x + 3x = 6000

⟶ 5x = 6000

⟶ x = 6000/5

⟶ x = 1200

∴ The profit of B = Rs 3x = Rs (3 × 1200) = Rs 3600

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

• A and B invested some amount in a buisness in the ratio of 2 : 3. There is a profit of Rs 6000.

To Find :-

• How much Rs B will gain.

Solution :-

Let,

$\longmapsto$ A invested be Rs 2x

$\longmapsto$ B invested be Rs 3x

According to the question :

$\implies \sf 2x + 3x =\: 6000$

$\implies \sf 5x =\: 6000$

$\implies \sf x =\: \dfrac{\cancel{6000}}{\cancel{5}}$

$\implies \sf\bold{\purple{x =\: Rs\: 1200}}$

Hence, the required amount invested by A and B are :

➲ Money invested by A :

↦ $\sf Rs\: 2x$

↦ $\sf Rs\: 2(1200)$

↦ $\sf Rs\: 2 \times 1200$

➠ $\sf\bold{\red{Rs\: 2400}}$

And,

➲ Money invested by B :

↦ $\sf Rs\: 3x$

↦ $\sf Rs\: 3(1200)$

↦ $\sf Rs\: 3 \times 1200$

➠ $\sf\bold{\red{Rs\: 3600}}$

$\therefore$ Money gain by B is Rs 3600 .
