Q:

A is a working and B is sleeping partners in a business. A puts in Rs. 5000 and B puts in Rs.6000. A receives % of the profit for managing the business and the rest is divided in proportion to their capital. What does each get out of a profit of Rs. 880?

Answer

Total profit = Rs. 880


A's share for managing the business i.e 


\inline 12\frac{1}{2} %  =  \inline \frac{25\times 880}{200}=Rs.110


Remaining profit of A and B as per their capital = 880 - 110 = Rs. 770


Ratio of amounts = 5000 : 6000 = 5 : 6


Sum of ratios = 5 + 6 = 11


A's share = \inline 770\times \frac{5}{11}= Rs.350


A's total share = 350 + 110 = Rs. 460


B's share = \inline 770\times \frac{6}{11}=Rs.420
