Question Detail

A, B and C enter into a partnership investing Rs 35000, Rs 45000 and Rs 55000 resp. The respective share of A,B and C in an annual profit of Rs 40500 are.

Rs. 11500, Rs. 13500, Rs. 16500
Rs. 10500, Rs. 12500, Rs. 16500
Rs. 10500, Rs. 13500, Rs. 15500
Rs. 10500, Rs. 13500, Rs. 16500

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

A:B:C = 35000:45000:55000
= 7:9:11

Now we are having the ratio.
to get the share, first make total of above ratio.
then get each share.

\begin{aligned}
\text{A's Share} = 40500*\frac{7}{27} \\
= Rs&10500 \\

\text{B's Share} = 40500*\frac{9}{27} \\
= Rs&13500 \\

\text{B's Share} = 40500*\frac{11}{27} \\
= Rs&16500 \\

\end{aligned}

1. Rahul and Bharti are partners in a business. Rahul contributes 1/4th capital for 15 months and Bharti received 2/3 of profit. For how long Bharti money was used.

8 months
10 months
11 months
17 months

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the total profit be Rs. Z

Bharti's share = (2/3)Z
Rahul's Share = Z-(2/3)Z = Z/3

Rahul:Bharti = Z/3:(2/3)Z = 1:2

Now let the total capital be Rs X, and Bharti capital was used for Y months
then, Rahul capital will be (1/4)X and Bharti capital wil be X-(1/4)X = 3X/4
\begin{aligned}
\frac{\frac{1}{4}X*15}{\frac{3}{4}X*Y}= \frac{1}{2} \\
Y = \frac{15*2}{3} = 10
\end{aligned}

So Bharti's money was used for 10 months

2. In business, A and C invested amounts in the ratio 2:1, whereas the ratio between amounts invested by A and B was 3:2, If Rs 157300 was their profit, how much amount did B receive.

Rs 48000
Rs 47000
Rs 47400
Rs 48400

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

A:B = 3:2 = 6:4
=> A:C = 2:1 = 6:3

=> A:B:C = 6:4:3

B share = (4/13)*157300
= 48400

3. A, B and C invested Rs. 8000, Rs. 4000 and Rs. 8000 respectively in a business. A left after six months. If after eight months, there was a gain of Rs. 4005, then what will be the share of B?

Rs 690
Rs 790
Rs 890
Rs 990

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

A:B:C = (8000*6):(4000*8):(8000*8)
= 48:32:64
= 3:2:4

So B share = (2/9)*4005 = Rs 890

4. Nirmal and Kapil started a business investing Rs. 9000 and Rs. 12000 respectively. After 6 months, Kapil withdrew half of his investment. If after a year, the total profit was Rs. 4600, what was Kapil’s share initially ?

Rs 2300
Rs 2400
Rs 2500
None of above

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Nirmal:Kapil = 9000*12:(12000*6+6000*6) = 1:1

Kapils share = Rs. [4600 *(1/2)) = Rs. 2300
