Question 83

X, Y and Z are partners in a company. In one year X receives 1/4 part of profit, Y receives 1/5 part of profit and Z receives Rs 22000. How much amount (in Rs) will X get as profit?

Solution

Let total profit earned = Rs. $$20x$$

Profit earned by X = $$\frac{1}{4}\times20x=5x$$

Profit earned by Y = $$\frac{1}{5}\times20x=4x$$

=> Profit earned by Z = $$20x-(5x+4x)=11x$$

According to ques,

=> $$11x=22,000$$

=> $$x=\frac{22,000}{11}=Rs.$$ $$2,000$$

$$\therefore$$ Amount earned by X as profit = $$5\times2,000=Rs.$$ $$10,000$$

=> Ans - (A)
