Solution

The correct option is A
₹ 2400

The ratio of time investent between Slade and Wade = 5 : 6

Let Slade get 5x and Wade get 6x of the money earned by them

5x + 6x = 4400

11x = 4400

x = $\frac{4400}{11}$ = ₹ 400

$∴$ The amount of money that Wade would have got would be $6 x = 6 \times 400 = ₹ 2400$
