Answer 1

Answer:

14000

Step-by-step explanation:

8$x$ : 7$x$

(8 + 7)$x$ = 30000

15$x$ = 30000

∴ $x$ = 30000 / 15

$x$ = 2000

B has 7$x$ as his share (8 : 7)

so,

   2000 x 7 = 14000

Please mark me as brainliest

Answer:14000, hope it helps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A's share be= 8x

Let B's share be = 7x

The profit is =30000

8x+7x=30000

15x=30000

x=30000/15

x=2000

A's share=8x=8×2000=16000

B's share=7x=7×2000=14000
