Question

The ratio of the capitals invested in a partnership business by three friends Sukdev, Basudev and Mahadev is as 1/5:1/4:1/3. If at the end of the business there is a profit of Rs 4700, find the amount of the share of price of each.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the capitals invested in a partnership business by three friends Sukdev, Basudev and Mahadev =1/5:1/4:1/3.

=12/60:15/60:20:60

=12:15:20

TOTAL PROFIT =RS 4700

LET SHARE OF

SUKUDEV=12x

SUKUDEV=12xBASUDEV=15x

SUKUDEV=12xBASUDEV=15xMAHADEV=20x

=>12x+15x+20x=4700

=>47x=4700

=>x=4700/47=100

SO SHARE OF PROFIT IS

SUKUDEV=12x=12×100=rs1200

BASUDEV=15x=15×100=rs1500

MAHADEV=20x=20×100=rs2000

Answer 2

${\red{\huge{\bold{\underline{\underline{Solutions:-}}}}}}$

• The ratio of the capitals of Sukdev,Basudev and Mahadev

⟹ 1/5 : 1/4 : 1/3

⟹ 60/5 : 60/4 : 60/3

⟹ 12 : 15 : 20

Total profit= Rs 4700

$\large\underline\mathrm\red{Now}$,

• let the share of Sukdev,Basudev and Mahadev be = 12x ,15x and 20x

$\large\underline\mathrm\red{By \: conditions,}$

⟹ 12x + 15x + 20x =4700

⟹ 47x = 4700

⟹ x = 4700/47

⟹ x=100

$\large\underline\mathrm\red{Now}$,by putting the value of x, we get,

$\large\underline\mathrm\red{Share \: of \: Sukdev}$

⟹ 12x

⟹ 12 × 100

⟹ Rs 1200

$\large\underline\mathrm\red{Share \: of \: Basudev}$

⟹ 15x

⟹ 15 × 100

⟹Rs 1500

$\large\underline\mathrm\red{Share \: of \: Mahadev}$

⟹ 20x

⟹ 20 × 100

⟹ Rs 2000
