Answer 1

Suhra get the  profit of Rs 4000 and Sita will get the profit of Rs 3000.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the new business, Suhra invested Rs 40000 and SIta invested Rs 3000. Total amount invested in the business is

                         = 40000 + 30000

                         = 70000

     The total profit of the business is 7000.

The ratio of profit of Suhra is

                    = $\frac{40000}{70000} \times 7000$

                 = 4000

The ratio of profit of Sita is

                     = $\frac{30000}{70000} \times 7000$

                   = 3000
