Question

Hari and ram enter into a partnership with capital of rs.15,000 and rs.12,000 respectively.The total profit was rs.8000. Hari had put his capital for 4 months and received rs.5000 as his profit.For how many months had ram put his capital?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hari and Ram capital amount ratio is = 15000:12000=5:4

Now total profit = Rs 8000

And Hari gets profit = Rs 5000

Therefore Ram gets profit = Rs 8000 - Rs 5000 = Rs 3000

So, the ratio of profit is = 5000 : 3000 = 5 : 3

Now , Time of hari had put his capital is 4 months .

So let the time of ram put his captial be x months.

Hence , (5*4)/(4*X)= 5:3

(20/4X)=5/3

20X=60

X=3 months
