Question

Dilip. Ram and Amar started a shop by investing Rs. 2700, Rs. 8100 and Rs. 7200 respectively. At the end of the year, the profit was distributed. If Ram’s share was Rs. 3600, then their total profit was?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs 8000

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of their investment

2700:8100:7200

=3:9:8

let the shares be 3x,9x and 8x

Ram's share will be 9x

also, Ram's share is Rs. 3600

so, 9x = 3600

x = 3600/9

= 400

sum of ratios = 3x+9x+8x

= 20x

so, if x is 400, 20x will be 400*20

=8000
