Q:

A person lends Rs. 300 to A at 4% and Rs.540 to B at 6% for the same time. if the total amount that he gets at the end is Rs. 1032. What is the time?

Answer

Money lent to A+B = (300 + 540) = Rs. 840

Amount received = Rs. 1032

Interest received = Rs. 1032 - Rs.840 = Rs. 192

Interest on Rs. 300 lent to A for 1 year = $\frac{300 \times 1 \times 4}{100}$ = Rs. 12

Interest on Rs.540 lent to B for 1 year = $\frac{540 \times 6 \times 1}{100}$ = Rs. 36

Total yearly interest = Rs.(12+36) = Rs.48

If interest is Rs. 48, time = 1 year

If interest is Rs. 192, time = 192/48 = 4 years

Q:

Two partners investede Rs. 1250 and Rs. 850 respectively in a business. They distributed 60% of the profit equally and decide to distribute the remaining 40% as the ratio of their capitals. If one partner received Rs. 30 more than the other, find the total profit?

Answer

Let the total profit be Rs.x

60% of the profit = $\inline \frac{60}{100}\times x=Rs.\frac{3x}{5}$

from this part of the profit each gets = Rs. $\inline \frac{3x}{10}$

40% of the profit = $\inline \frac{40}{100}\times x=Rs.\frac{2x}{5}$

Now, this amount of Rs. $\inline \frac{2x}{5}$ has been divided in the ratio of capitals 1250 : 850 = 25 :17

$\inline \therefore$ Share on first capital = $\inline (\frac{2x}{5}\times \frac{25}{42})=Rs.\frac{5x}{21}$

Share on second capital = $\inline (\frac{2x}{5}\times \frac{17}{42})=Rs.\frac{17x}{105}$

Total money received by 1st investor = $\inline [\frac{3x}{10}+\frac{5x}{21}]= Rs.\frac{113x}{210}$

Total money received by 2nd investor = $\inline [\frac{113x}{210}+\frac{97x}{210}]=Rs.\frac{97x}{210}$

$\inline \therefore$ x = 393.75

Hence total profit = Rs. 393.75
