A) Rs 3600
B) Rs 3000
C) Rs 2875
D) Rs 2550
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Let the total profit be Rs x. Amount of profit \[=\,\left( x-\frac{3x}{10} \right)=\text{Rs}\,\,\left( \frac{7x}{10} \right)\] Ratio of capitals = 5000 : 6000 : 4000 or 5 : 6 : 4 \[\therefore \] A?s share \[=\,\left[ \left( \frac{7x}{10}\times \frac{5}{15} \right)+\frac{3x}{10} \right]=\text{Rs}\,\,\left( \frac{8x}{15} \right)\] B?s share \[=\,\left[ \frac{7x}{10}\times \frac{6}{15} \right]=\text{Rs}\,\,\left( \frac{7x}{25} \right)\] C?s share \[=\,\left[ \left( \frac{7x}{10}\times \frac{4}{15} \right) \right]=\text{Rs}\,\left( \frac{14x}{15} \right)\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{7x}{25}+\frac{14x}{75}+200=\frac{8x}{15}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=3000\] Thus, the total profit is Rs 3000.You need to login to perform this action.
