Question

A invest 500 rupees for 9 month and B invested his money for 6 month. If B's share is 46 rupees in 69 rupees profit then find the sum invested by B​

Answer 1

Let amount invested by A = Rs. x

A : B

Capital -> x : (x + 5000)

According to the question,

Share of A in Profit = (26000−6000)2= Rs.10,000(26000−6000)2= Rs.10,000

Share of B in profit = (26000 - 10000) = Rs. 16,000

By using formulaes:

C1×T1C2×T2=P1P2C1×T1C2×T2=P1P2

x×5(x+5000)×6=1000016000x×5(x+5000)×6=1000016000

4x = 3x + 15000

x = Rs. 15000

Required capital of A = Rs. 15,000

Required capital of B = (15,000 + 5000) = Rs. 20,000
