Sir
Tourism like any other industry has to satisfy the customers for its success. And in tourism the customers are the tourists. In order to attract the customers the industry has to take care of certain basic things. The first of these is security. Tourists must feel themselves secure when they are visiting a place. They should have no fear of being cheated or robbed. Next comes the system of transport. It must be easy, comfortable and not too expensive. The place must also be clean and should have attractive surroundings. The hospitality of the people and their friendly behaviour towards the tourist can help a lot in attracting them to the place again and again. To do all this both the government and the public have to play their respective roles faithfully and diligently.

Answer:
A's capital is 24,000
Step-by-step explanation:
- A's share in a business is 8,000 more than B
- A invested for 8 months
- B invested for 12 months
- Their annual shares of profit are equal,
- A's capital = ??
Solution :
Let,
- B's capital = x
- A's capital = x + 8,000
A invested for 8 months :
⇒ 8 (x + 8,000)
B invested for 12 months,
So,
★ According to the Question :
⇒ 8 (x + 8,000) = 12x
⇒ 8x + 64,000 = 12x
⇒ 64,000 = 12x - 8x
⇒ 64,000 = 4x
⇒ x = 64,000/4
⇒ x = 16,000
B's capital = 16,000
• A's capital = x + 8,000
⇒ x + 8,000
⇒ 16,000 + 8,000
⇒ 24,000
A's capital = 24,000
Therefore, A's capital is 24,000
