Question 9

X and Y started a business by investing Rs 171000 and Rs 243000 respectively. If X’s share in the profit earned at the end of year is Rs 3800, then what will be the total profit (in Rs) earned by them together?

Solution

Investment by X = Rs. 171,000 and by Y = Rs. 243,000

=> Ratio of profits at the end of year = $$171,000:243,000=19:27$$

X's share in the profit = Rs. 3800

=> Total profit = $$\frac{(19+27)}{19}\times3800$$

=> $$46\times200=Rs.$$ $$9200$$

=> Ans - (A)
