Question

Bhavna, Charu and Shikha invested Rs $3600$ for $7$ months, Rs $4300$ for $9$ months and Rs $4500$ for $6$ months respectively. What is the share of profit of Charu (in rupees) out of a total profit of Rs. $12,120$?

Answer 1

Ratio of shares of profit of Bhavna : Charu : Shikha

$\Rightarrow 3600\times 7:4300\times 9:4500\times 6$

$\Rightarrow 4\times 7:43:15\times 2$

$\Rightarrow 28:43:30$

So share of Charu =

$\Rightarrow \frac{43}{28+43+30}\times 12120$

$\Rightarrow \frac{43}{101}\times 12120$

$\Rightarrow 5160$

$\therefore$ Charu's share = Rs $5160$
