Question 8

P, Q and R are partners in a company. In any year P receives 1/9 part of profit, Q receives 1/6 part of profit and R receives Rs 130000. How much amount (in Rs) will P get as profit?

Solution

Let total profit earned = Rs. $$18x$$

Profit earned by P = $$\frac{1}{9}\times18x=2x$$

Profit earned by Q = $$\frac{1}{6}\times18x=3x$$

=> Profit earned by R = $$18x-(2x+3x)=13x$$

According to ques,

=> $$13x=130,000$$

=> $$x=\frac{130,000}{13}=Rs.$$ $$10,000$$

$$\therefore$$ Amount earned by P as profit = $$2\times10,000=Rs.$$ $$20,000$$

=> Ans - (D)
