  • Question
  • A and B together start a business by investing in the ratio of 4 : 3. If 9% of the total profit goes to charity and A's share is ? 1196, find the total profit.


  • Options
  • A. ? 2300
  • B. ? 4435
  • C. ? 2093
  • D. ? 2700

  • Correct Answer
  • ? 2300 

    Explanation

    Let total profit = N
    Paid to charity = 9% of N = 9N/100
    ? Balance profit = N - (9N/100) = 91N/100
    ? A's share = [4/(4 + 3)] x (91N/100) = (4/7) x (91N/100)

    According to the question,
    (4/7) x (91N/100) = 1196
    ? N = (1196 x 7 x 100)/(4 x 91) = ? 2300
    Hence, total profit = ? 2300
