Question

The total profit is 1500 in a partnership business of two persons. If the capital of Rajib
is 7 6000 and profit is 900, let us calculate how much was the capital of Abtab.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the of capital of the aftab be =X

rest profit of aftab =1500-900=600.

6000/X = 900/600

6000/x =9/6

x =6*6000/9

x=4000

capital of aftab is 4000.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the capital of Abtab be x

:• ratio of their capitals-

Rajib : Abtab

6000 : x

Total profit = rs 1500

share of Rajib = rs 900

share of Abtab = rs 1500 - rs 900

=rs 600

:• ratio of their profit-

Rajib : Abtab

900 : 600

3 : 2

:• 6000 : x = 3 : 2

or,6000/x = 3/2

or,3x = 12000

or,x = 12000/3

or,x = 4000

:• capital of Abtab is rs 4000 (ans)
