Question

A, B and C invested their capitals in the ratio of 2:3:5. The ratio of months for which A, B and C invested is 4:2:3. IF C gets a share of profit which is 1,47,000 more than the fint the share of B.​

Answer 1

SOLUTION:-

Ratio of capitals invested by A, B and C = 2 : 3 : 5

Ratio of time A, B and C = 4 : 2 : 3

As we know,

Profit = Time × Money

Ratio of profit A, B and C = (2 × 4) : (3 × 2) : (5 : 3) = 8 : 6 : 15

Let the ratio of profit A, B and C = 8k : 6k : 15K

According to the question

15k – 8k = 147000

⇒ 7k = 147000

⇒ k = 147000/7 = 21000

(15 – 8 = 7 unit) = 147000

⇒ 1 unit = 14700/7 = 21000

⇒ 6 unit = 21000 × 6 = 126000

∴ Profit share of B = 126000

∴ Profit share of B = 6k = 6 × 21000 = 126000
