Question

$A$ and $B$ started a business in partnership investing Rs. $20,000$ and Rs. $15,000$ respectively. After six months, $C$ joined them with Rs. $20,000$. What will be $B$'s share in total profit of Rs. $25,000$ earned at the end of $2$ years from the starting of the business?

• A. Rs. $7500$
• B. Rs. $9000$
• C. Rs. $9500$
• D. Rs. $10,000$

Answer 1

The correct option is A Rs. $7500$

$A:B:C=(20,000\times 24):(15,000\times 24):(20,000\times 18)=4:3:3$.
$\therefore$ $B$'s share $=$ Rs. $(25000\times \frac{3}{10})=$ Rs. $7,500$.
