  • Question

  • Options
  • A. 22000
  • B. 28000
  • C. 32000
  • D. 36000

  • Correct Answer
  • 28000 

    Explanation

    Suppose B invested Rs. x for y months. Then, A invested Rs. 3x for 2y months.

    So, A : B = (3x * 2y) : (x * y) = 6xy : xy = 6 : 1.

    B's profit : Total profit  = 1 : 7.

    Let the total profit be Rs. x Then,  1/7 = 4000/x  or x = 28000.
