Question 32
Three partners P, Q, R start a business. Twice of P's capital is equal to thrice of Q's capital and Q's capital is four times of R's capital. Out of a total profit of ₹27,500 at the encl of the year, Q's share is:
Solution
Let us assume that R's capital is X.
Q's capital will be 4X.
2 * P's Capital = 3 * Q's capital
P's capital = 6X.
The ratio in which they will receive profits ==> 6X : 4X : X
==> 6 : 4 : 1.
Q's share in profits = $$\frac{4}{6+4+1}=\frac{4}{11}$$ of total profits.
==> 10000 Rs.
