Now B's share = Rs. 4,000
? A's share = Rs. 24, 000
Hence, Total profit = Rs. 28,000
Correct Answer: 3 months
Explanation:
Suppose B invested the money for N months.
Then the ratio of investment = (12 x 11 : 11 x N) = 12 : N
? 12/N = 4/1
? N = 3 months.
Correct Answer: Rs. 8000
Explanation:
Ratio between the investment of Pramod and Vikas = 40000 x 12 : 60000 x 8
= 480000 : 480000 = 1 : 1

Correct Answer: ? 140
Explanation:
Let the saving of A and B are 4p, 5p and the share in cost of gift are 3q, 4q respectively.
According to the question,
For A, 4p - 3q = (2/3) x 4p
? p = 9q/4 ..... (i)
For B, 5p - 4q = 145
? 5 x (9q/4) - 4q = 145 .....[by Eq. (ii)
? q = 20
? Cost of gift = 3q + 4q = 7 x 20
= ? 140
Correct Answer: ? 54000
Explanation:
Given ratio of employee = 9 : 13 : 18
Let number of A's emplouees = 9k
Number of B's employees = 13k
and number of C's employees = 18k
According to the question
18k = 54
? k = 3
? Number of employee of type A = 9 x 3 = 27
Similarly, Wages of every employee of types A = 10/7 x 1400 = ? 2000
Required wages = 27 x 2000 = ? 54000
Correct Answer: Rs. 400
Explanation:
Let C's share = Rs. N
Then B's share = Rs. N/2
and A's share = Rs. N/4

? A : B : C = 6N : 4N : N = 6 : 4 : 1
? C's share = Rs. 5940 x (1/11) = Rs. 540
Correct Answer: 6 : 3 : 1
Explanation:
Let C's capital = Rs. x
