Profit percent on sale =20%

Total profit on sale of plot of land in rupees =

100

144000×20

=Rs.28800

So, they both sold the plot of land at a profit of Rs.28800

Profit sharing ratio of Suresh and Ramesh =4:5

Sum of ratios =4+5=9

Suresh's share in profit =

9

4×28800

9

115200

=Rs.12800

Ramesh's share in profit =

9

(5×28800)

=

9

144000

=Rs.16000

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs . 16000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

cost price of the plot of land = 1,44,000 rs

profit percent on sale =20%

total profit on sale of plot of land in rs =1 ,44,000*20/100

= rs 28800

So , they both sold the plot of land as a profit of rs . 28800

profit changing ratio of suresh and ramesh =4:5

sum of ratio = 4+5

=9

suresh's share in profit =4*28800/9

=115200/9

= rs.12800

ramesh's share in profit = 5*28800/9

= 144000/9

=rs 16000

Therefore, the profit each of them got is suresh's profit is rs 12800 and ramesh's profit is rs 16000
