Question

'A' starts a business with an investment of Rs. 2.500. Seven months later. 'B' joins with 'A' as a partner. After a year, the profits are divided in the ratio of 3:4. How much did 'B' contribute?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ratio of division of profits = 3:4

Let B's contribution be 'x'.

2500 x 12 / 7x = 2 / 3

30000/7x = 2 / 3

90000 = 14x

x = 90000/14

x = 6,428.57

Thus, B contributed 6,428.57 /-
