Read the following case and answer the following question.
Mr. Krishna has recently acquired four companies namely K - Tea, Kun - Tea, Sun-Tree and Ruk-Money. When the results of the companies for the year 2015-16 were placed before him, he found a few interesting things about them. While the total expenses of Sun-Tree were 5 times its profits, sales of RukMoney were three times its profits.While the profits of Sun-Tree and Ruk-Money were same, the sales of Sun-Tree were the same as those of Kun-Tea, profits of K-Tea were 10% of its sales, where as the profits of Kun-Tea were 20% of its sales. The total expenses of Sun-Tree were 100,000. The total expenses of K-Tea were 10% less than those of Sun-Tree. (Profits are defined as the difference between sales and total expenditure) .
What is the ratio of Expenses of Sun-Tree and Ruk-Money during the financial year 2015-16?
It is given that Profits of Sun-tree and Ruk-Money are same. Let $$x$$ represent it.
The total expenses of Sun-Tree was 5 times its profits = $$5x$$
The sales of RukMoney was three times its profits = $$3x$$. Thus Expense = Sales - Profit = $$2x$$
The ratio of Expenses of Sun-Tree and Ruk-Money = $$5 :2$$
