Question 95

In a partnership. P, Q and R shared profit in the ratio 1:4:5. If the total profit is Rs. 55,000, then the difference of profit between the shares of P and Q (in Rs.) is

Solution

as in the given question,

total profit$$=55000$$

shared profit of P,Q,R will be$$=x+4x+5x$$

then,sum of profit will be$$\Rightarrow x+4x+5x=55000$$

$$x=5500$$

then,the profit of $$P=1\times 5500$$

profit of Q $$=4\times 5500=22000$$

difference of profit between Q and P=Profit of Q-Profit of P

$$\Rightarrow 22000-5500=16500$$

So the difference of profit between Q and P is 16500
