A starts business with Rs. 3500 and after 5 months, B joins with A as his partner. After a year, the profit is divided in the ratio 2:3. What is B's contribution in the capital

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let C = x.
Then B = x/2
and A = x/4

A:B:C = 1:2:4.
C's share Rs.[(4/7)*700) = 400

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

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

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

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let their investments be Rs. x for 14 months, Rs. y for 8 months and Rs. z for 7 months respectively

Then, 14x : 8y : 7z = 5 : 7 : 8

Now, 14x/8x = 5/7
=> y = (49/20)x

14x/7z = 5/8

=> z = (16/5)x

=>x:y:z = x:(49/20)x:(16/5)x
= 20:49:64

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this type of question as time frame for both investors is equal then just get the ratio of their investments.

P:Q = 85000:15000
= 85:15
= 17:3

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Arun : Kamal : Vinay = (8,000 x 6) : (4,000 x 8) : (8,000 x 8)
= 48 : 32 : 64
= 3 : 2 : 4

\begin{aligned}
\text{Kamal's share}= 4005 * \frac{2}{9}\\
= Rs 890
\end{aligned}
