Answer 1

Answer:

7000 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question that requires the use of the basic knowledge provided

We know the contribution made by x and y but we don't know the contribution made by z in the business.

We also have the percentage of the profit that x got

We can get the percentage of the profit that y got by asking ourselves this question

If 5000 rupees yielded a 25% profit how about 8000 rupees

5000– 25%

8000–?

8000 × 25 /5000

8000 × 25 = 200000

200000 ÷ 5000 = 40%

So y got 40 percent of the profit

We add both profits available

40% + 25% = 65%

We then subtract from 100% to get the profit made by z

100% - 65% = 35%

25–5000

35–?

35 × 5000 = 175000

175000÷ 25% = 7000 rupees
