Question

Nasruddin and Mahesh invested 40,000 and 60000 respectively to start a business they made a profit of 30% how much profit did each of them make

Answer 1

Answer:

12,000 and 18,000

Explanation:

Given Nasruddin and Mahesh invested 40,000 and 60000 respectively to start a business they made a profit of 30% how much profit did each of them make

Now we know Nasruddin invested Rs 40,000 to start a business

So profit he made was 30 % of 40,000

 30 / 100 x 40,000 = Rs 12,000

Now we know Mahesh  invested Rs 60,000 to start a business

So profit he made was 30 % of 60,000

 30 / 100 x 60,000 = Rs 18,000

So Nasruddin made a profit of Rs 12,000 and Mahesh made a profit of Rs 18,000

Answer 2

Nasruddin and Mahesh invested 40,000 and 60000 respectively to start a business they made a profit of 30% how much profit did each of them make

Nasruddin Invested = 40000

Mahesh Invested = 60000

Total investment = 100000

30% profit = (30/100) * 100000 = 30000

Profit Share = (investment/Total Investment) * Total Profit

Nasruddin profit share = (40000/100000)* 30000 = 12000

Mahesh profit share = (60000/100000)* 30000 = 18000

or Simply

Profit Share = (Profit % / 100) * Investment

Nasruddin Profit share = (30 /100) * 40000 = 12000

Mahesh profit share = (30/100) * 60000 = 18000
