Question

a and b joined a partnership business by investing rs. 30000 and rs. 50000 respectively. if they earn a profit of rs. 4000, find a's share in the profit​

Answer 1

Given:  Investments of A=30000, B=50000

            Total Profit = 4000

To Find: A's share in profit

Solution: we know that Profit = Invetment × time

Since time is constant so, Profit is divided in the ratio of investment

$I_{A} :I_{B}$ = 30000:50000 = 3:5

A's Share = $\frac{3}{3+5} 4000=1500$Rs
