Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 30000

Step-by-step explanation:

Jayant : Madhu =30000 xx 12 : 45000 xx 10

                    `= 4 : 5

Madhu's share = Rs. (54000 xx 5/9)

                   = Rs. 30000.

Answer 2

Answer:

Madhu's share = Rs. 30000

Step-by-step explanation:

Investment made by Jayant at the time of opening of shop = Rs. 30000

Investment made by Madhu after 2 months of initial time = Rs 45000

So, to find the profit share of Madhu , we first find the ratio of their investments

⇒ Jayant invested for 12 months and Madhu invested for 10 months

⇒ Jayant : Madhu = 30000 × 12 : 45000 × 10

⇒ Jayant : Madhu = 360000 : 450000

⇒ Jayant : Madhu = 4 : 5

Sum of ratios = 9

Now, Profit earned = Rs. 54000

$\text{Madhu's share = }\frac{5}{9}\times 54000\\\\\implies\text{Madhu's share = Rs. }30000$
