Question

Rama invested Rs.$6000$ and started a business. After $7$ months Govinda invested some amount in the same business. At the end of the year Govinda got half of the total profit. What is Govindas investment in the business?

Answer 1

Rama's Investment $=6000$

Let Govinda's investment $=x$

Since Govinda got half of the profit.

$\therefore$ Govinda's total investment $=$ Rama's total investment.

$\Rightarrow x\times (12-7)=6000\times 12$

$\Rightarrow x=14,000$

$\therefore$ Govindas investment $=Rs14,000$.
