Answer 2

Answer:

Shares of P and R is 6267 Rs and 3133 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given problem the investors might be P and R

Given that P invested   = 8000 Rs

                  R invested  = 4000 Rs

and the profit at end of the year = 10,000 Rs

the capital interest received by each partner = 5%

capital interest = capital amount ×rate × time period

[capital amount = invested amount, rate = 5, t = 1 year ]

the capital interest received by P =  8000× $\frac{ 5}{ 100}$ × 1=  400 Rs

the capital interest received by R = 4000× $\frac{ 5}{100}$ × 1 = 200 Rs

the ratio of the investments of P and R = 8000 : 4000

                                                                  =  8 :4

                                                                  = 2 : 1

The time periods of both investments is same therefore the profit must be share in the ratio of the investment which is  2 : 1

 The share of P in profit  =  10000 × $\frac{2 }{ 3}$  = 6666.6

 The share of R in profit = 10000 × $\frac{ 1}{3}$ =  3333.3

 here the capital interest is excluded

 the share of P = 6667 - capital interest

                         =  6667 - 400 =  6267 Rs [ 6666.6 is taken as 6667 ]

 the share of R = 3333 - capital interest

                          = 3333  -200 = 3133 Rs    [ 3333.3 is taken as 3333 ]
