Question
Rajeev start a business with Rs. 10000, Deepu joins him after 2 month with 20% more investment than Rajeev, after 2 month Shakti joins him with 40% less than Deepu. If the profit earned by them at the end of the year is equal to the twice of the difference between investment of Rajeev and ten times the investment of Shakti. Find the profit of Rajeev ?
Options
A. 50000
B. 48000
C. 38000
D. 40000

Correct Answer

38000

Explanation

Here from the given information,

The ratio of investments of Rajeev, Deepu & Shakti is

R : D : S = (10000 � 12) : (12000 � 10) : (7200 � 8)

= 25 : 25 : 12

Now the Profit = 2 � (72000-10000) = 124000

Share of Rajeev = 124000 x 25/62 = 48000

Profit of Rajeev = 48000 - 10000 = 38000
