  • A. Only a is sufficient
  • B. Neither a nor b is sufficient
  • C. Only b is sufficient
  • D. Both a and b sufficient

  • Correct Answer
  • Both a and b sufficient 

    Explanation

    Given Pranay's profit in the share is Rs. 8750

    But given that their investments are in the ratio 2:4:7

    7 13 × P  = 8750

    P = 16250


    Now Anand's share = 4 13 × 16250  = Rs.5000

    Thus both staements a and b are sufficient to answer this question.
