Q:

A, B and C enter into a partnership with a capital in which A's contribution is Rs. 10,000. If out of a total profit of Rs. 1000, A gets Rs. 500 and B gets Rs. 300, then C's capital is :

A) 4000 B) 5000
C) 6000 D) 7000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4000

Explanation:

A : B : C = 500 : 300 : 200 = 5 : 3 : 2.

Let their capitals be 5x, 3x and 2x respectively.

Then, 5x = 10000  

=>  x = 2000.

C's capital = 2x = Rs. 4000.

Q:

In a 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. 1,57,300 was their profit, how much amount did B receive ?

A) 48400 B) 54200
C) 64000 D) 74000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 48400

Explanation:

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

So, B : A : C = 4 : 6 : 3 or A : B : C = 6 : 4 : 3.

B's share = Rs. (157300 x 4/13 ) = Rs. 48400.

A) 4 months B) 5 months

So, B joined for 8 months.

Q:

A and B start a business jointly. A invests Rs. 16,000 for 8 months and B remains in  the business for 4 months, Out of total profit, B claims - of the profit. How much money was contributed by B ?

A) 12000 B) 12800
C) 13000 D) 14500
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 12800

Explanation:

Let the total profit be Rs. x. Then, B = 2x/7 and A = (x - 2x /7) =  5x / 7.

So, A : B = 5x/7 : 2x/7 = 5 : 2.

Let B s capital be Rs. y. Then, (16000 * 8) / ( y * 4) = 5/2  <=> (16000 * 8 * 2) / (5 * 4) = 12800..
