Question

Answer 1

Answer:

B =9,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Profit of B be X

therefore 6,000/x =2/3

x = 3 into 6,000/2

= 18000/2

= 9,000

Therefore x = 9,000

Therefore profit gained by B = 9,000.

Answer 2

• 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
