  • Question
  • If 6 (P's Capital ) = 8 ( Q's Capital ) = 12 ( R's Capital ) , then out of the total profit of Rs 4650 , R will receive ?


  • Options
  • A. Rs. 1033.33
  • B. Rs. 1024
  • C. Rs. 1148.14
  • D. Rs. 1245.32

  • Correct Answer
  • Rs. 1033.33 

    Explanation

    Let
    P's capital = p,
    Q's capital = q and
    R's capital = r.
    Then

    6p = 8q = 12r
    => 3p = 4q = 6r
    =>q = 3p/4
    r = 3p/6 = p/2
    P : Q : R = p : 3p/4 : p/2
    = 4 : 3 : 2
    R's share = 4650 * (2/9) = 150*6 = Rs. 1033.33.
