Correct Answer: 10000 and 15000
Explanation:
As both A and B invest the same amounts, the ratio of their profits at the end of the year is equal to the ratio of the time periods for which they have invested.
Thus, the required ratio of their profits = A : B = 8 : 12 = 2 : 3.
Hence, share of A in the total profit = 2 x 25000/5 = Rs.10000
Similarly, share of B in the total profit = 3 x 25000/5 = Rs.15000
Correct Answer: 3600
Explanation:
A : B : C = (16000 * 3 + 11000 * 9) : (12000 * 3 + 17000 * 9) : (21000 * 6)
= 147 : 189 : 126
= 7 : 9 ; 6.
Difference of B and C's shares = Rs. ( 26400 * 9/22 - 26400 * 6/22 ) = Rs. 3600.
Correct Answer: Rs.46400
Explanation:
Interest received by L from K = 8% of half of Rs.40,000
Amount received by L per annum for being a working partner = 1200 x 12 = Rs.14,400
Let 'A' be the part of remaing profit that 'L' receives as his share.
Total income of 'K' = only his share from the reamaing profit
= 'A', as both share equally.
Given income of L = Twice the income of K
--> (1600 + 14400 + A ) = 2A
--> A= Rs.16000
Thus total profit = 2A + Rs.14,400= 2(16000) + 14400
= 32000 +14400 = Rs.46,400.
Correct Answer: 3 months
Explanation:
Ratio of profit of Rohith and Puneeth = 3600 x 12 : 2400 x P
= 3600 x 12/2400P = 2/1
=> P = 9
So, Puneeth joined the business after (12 - P) = 12 - 9 = 3 months.
Correct Answer: Rs. 500
Explanation:
Let the amounts to be received by P, Q and R be p, q and r.
p + q + r = 1200
p = 1/2 (q + r) => 2p = q + r
Adding 'p' both sides, 3p = p + q + r = 1200
=> p = Rs.400
q = 1/3 (p + r) => 3q = p + r
Adding 'q' both sides, 4q = p + q + r = 1200
=> q = Rs.300
r = 1200 - (p + q) => r = Rs.500.
Correct Answer: 4360
Explanation:
Ratio of shares of A,B,C = (24 x 4) : (10 x 6) : (56 x 5)
= 96 : 60 : 280.
Let total rent be Rs. x. Then, A's share =
Hence total rent of the field is Rs. 4360.
Correct Answer: Rs. 90000
Explanation:
Ratio of investments for 1 year
=> (P : Q : R) = (2x2 + 2.4x10) : (3x2 + 3.3x10) : (5x12)
=> (P : Q : R) = 28 : 39 : 60
Now R share = 190500 x 60/127 = Rs. 90000.
Correct Answer: 27848
Correct Answer: Rs. 4511
Explanation:
Now as per question, Karan invested for 12 months and Satish invested for 7 months.
So, Karan:Satish = (29000 x 12):(18000 x 7)
= 348:126
= 58:21
Satish Ratio in profit will be= = Rs. 4511
Correct Answer: Rs. 12,800
Explanation:

Ratio of K and L is
x = Rs. 12,800.
