Question

shobha and mashud together bought a car for rs. 250000 and sold it for rs. 262500.if sobha paid 3/2 times more than masud let us write by calculating their shares of profit

Answer 1

Masud's profit is Rs. 5000 and Shobha's profit is Rs. 7500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount Masud paid be x

so, Shobha paid = 1$\frac{1}{2}$x = 3/2x

Total amount paid = $x + \frac{3x}{2}$ = 250000

⇒ $\frac{5x}{2}$ = 2,50, 000

⇒ x = 1,00,000

Profit = S.P. - C.P.

= 2,62,500 - 2,50,000

= Rs. 12,500

Masud's share = 5x/2 = 12,500

⇒ x = 5000

Shobha's share = 12,500 - 5000 = Rs. 7,500
