    If A invested Rs x, then B Rs (x/2) and C invests Rs (x/3).
    Let B invested for y months, then A for (y/2)months, and C for (y/3) months
    So ratio of profit shares-
    A : B : C
    x*(y/2) : (x/2)*(y) : (x/3)*(y/3)

    E) Rs 65,900

    Answer & Explanation
    B) Rs 40,000
    Explanation: 

    Let total investment = Rs x
    Then A’s = (1/4)*x
    Remaining = 3/4th of x
    So B’s investment = (1/3)*(3x/4) = x/4
    And C’s = x – (x/4 + x/4) = x/2
    so ratio of profits = x/4 : x/4 : x/2 = 1 : 1 : 2
    so 1/4 * x = 10,000
    x = 40,000

    A’s share : B’s share
    20,000*12 : 25,000*8
    6 : 5
    A got its salary as = [(25/3)/100] * 60,000 = 5000

    D) Rs 10,000
    E) Rs 12,800

    Answer & Solution
    C) Rs 10,800 
    Explanation:
    After a year C gets salary = 500*6 = Rs 3,000 [Since C was for 6 months in the business with each month earning 500] So 10% of total profit after a year = 3,000
    Total profit = Rs 30,000
    A invested for 12 months, B for 12, and C for 6 months
    Ratio of profit shares =
    4*12 : 3*12 : 6*6 = 4 : 3 : 3
    Profit left after deducting salary of C = 30,000 – 3,000 = 27,000
    So share of A = [4/(4+3+3)] * 27,000

  • A and B starts a business and invests Rs. 20,000 and Rs. 30,000 respectively. B is an active partner and he gets 25% of the profit separately. If their business yields them a total of Rs. 30,000 as profit, what is the share of B at the end of a year? 
    A) Rs 18,000
    B) Rs 13,500
    C) Rs 11,500
    D) Rs 21,000
    E) None of these

    Answer & Explanation
    D) Rs 21,000
    Explanation: 

    Ratio in which they get profits is 20,000 : 30,000 = 2 : 3
    B gets 25% of 30,000 = 7,500
    Profit left which is to be divided in ratio 2 : 3 = 30,000 – 7,500 = 22,500
    Now B gets [3/(2+3)] * 22,500 = 13,500
    So total share of B = 7500+13500
  • In a business A and C invested amounts in the ratio 3:2, whereas A and B invested amounts in the ratio 4:1. If the total profit at the end of a year is Rs 35,650, find the share of A. 
    A) Rs 18,600
    B) Rs 12,600
    C) Rs 16,200
    D) Rs 13,600
    E) Rs 20,700

    Answer & Explanation
    A) Rs 18,600
    Explanation: 

    B/A = 1/4, A/C = 3/2
    So B : A : C = 1*3 : 4*3 : 4*2 = 3 : 12 : 8
    Share of A = [12/(3+12+8)] * 35,650
  • 3 partners started a business. The capital invested by B was two-third that of A and also it was thrice the investment of C. Find the share of B out of a total profit of Rs 3,33,200. 
    A) Rs 1,02,200
    B) Rs 2,05,600
    C) Rs 67,300
    D) Rs 1,17,600
    E) Rs 1,27,600

    Answer & Explanation
    D) Rs 1,17,600
    Explanation: 

    Let investment of B = Rs x, then of A = (3/2)*x, and of C = (1/3)*x
    So their profit sharing ratio A : B : C =
    (3/2)*x : x : (1/3)*x = 9 : 6 : 2
    Share of B = [6/(9+6+2)] * 333,200
  • A starts a business with Rs 20,000 and after 4 months B also joins with some capital. After a year, the profit is divided between them in the ratio 5 : 3. How much did B invested? 
    A) Rs 12,000
    B) Rs 18,000
    C) Rs 15,050
    D) Rs 12,750
    E) Rs 15,800

    Answer & Explanation
    B) Rs 18,000
    Explanation: 

    Let B invests Rs x, then ratio of their profits
    20000*12 : x*8 = 30,000 : x
    So 30,000/x = 5/3
    Solve, x = 18,000
  • A, B and C enter into a partnership in the ratio 2 : 3 : 5 . After 2 months, A increases his share 20% and B by 10%. If the total profit at the end of one year is Rs 1,90,500, what is the share of C at the end of year? 
    A) Rs 45,000
    B) Rs 90,000
    C) Rs 58,500
    D) Rs 79,600
    E) Rs 65,900

    Answer & Explanation
    B) Rs 90,000
    Explanation: 

    Let amounts invested be 2x, 3x, 5x resp.
    Then ratio of profits =
    A : B : C
    2x*2 + (120/100)*2x*10 : 3x*2 + (110/100)*3x*10 : 5x*12
    28x : 39x : 60x
    C’s share = [60/(28+39+60)] * 190500
  • A puts Rs 50 and B puts Rs 45 in a game. At the end of 4 months, A withdrew half of his money and at the end of 6 months B also withdrew half of his money. Now C also wants to play and puts Rs 70 and remains until the end of year. In what ratio the profit will be divided among them? 
    A) 91 : 60 : 85
    B) 61 : 81 : 72
    C) 65 : 80 : 74
    D) 84 : 80 : 81
    E) None of these

    Answer & Explanation
    E) None of these
    Explanation: 

    A’s share : B’s share : C’s share
    50*4 + (50/2) * 8 : 45*6 + (45/2) * 6 : 70*6
    80 : 81 : 84
  • A and B started a business by investing Rs 8,000 and Rs 9,000 respectively. After 4 months A withdrew Rs 400 and B added Rs 400 more. What is the share of B from the profit of Rs 10,200? 
    A) Rs 5460
    B) Rs 5480
    C) Rs 5560
    D) Rs 4460
    E) Rs 4640

    Answer & Solution
    C) Rs 5560 
    Explanation:
    8000*4 + 7600*8 : 9000*4 + 9400*8
    116 : 139
    Share of B = 139/(116+139) * 10200 = 5560
  • Out of a total profit of Rs 12,000, A received Rs 8000 as his share. If A invested Rs 20000 for 6 months while B invested his amount for the whole year, then find the amount that B invested. 
    A) Rs 6,000
    B) Rs 7,000
    C) Rs 6,500
    D) Rs 5,000
    E) None of these

    Answer & Explanation
    D) Rs 5,000
    Explanation: 

    Profits ratio = 8000 : 4000 = 2 : 1
    So
    20,000*6 : x*12 = 2 : 1
    10000/x = 2/1
    x = 5,000
  • The profit received at the end of a year is divided among A, B and C in the ratio 5:4:7 respectively. The share of A is Rs 2300 more than that of B. What is the amount that C got? 
    A) Rs 26,100
    B) Rs 16,800
    C) Rs 14,100
    D) Rs 16,100
    E) Rs 19,140

    Answer & Explanation
    D) Rs 16,100
    Explanation: 

    Their shares are 5x, 4x, 7x resp.
    5x – 4x = 2300
    x = 2300
    So C got 7*2300
  • In a business, A in invests 1/4th of the total capital for 1/4th of the time. B invests 1/5th of the total capital for half of the time and C invests the remaining capital for the whole time. What is the share of C in the total profit of Rs 7410? 
    A) Rs 5100
    B) Rs 4170
    C) Rs 5720
    D) Rs 2100
    E) None of these

    Answer & Explanation
    C) Rs 5720
    Explanation: 

    Let the whole time is 1. then A invests for 1/4, B invests for 1/2 and C for whole 1.
    Contribution of C = 1 – (1/4 + 1/5) = 11/20
    So A’s share : B’s share : C’s share
    1/4 * 1/4 : 1/5 * 1/2 : 11/20 * 1
    1/16 : 1/10 : 11/20
    5 : 8 : 44
    Share of C in profit = 44/(5+8+44) * 7410 = 5720
