    View Answer
    Option A
    Solution:

    Their investing ratio:
    (5000*2 + 3000*7) : (3000*3 + 1000*6) : (6000*6)
    = (30000):(15000):(36000) = 31:15:36
    Total profit for 9 months = Rs.4920
    Therefore, (31+15+36)82 == 4920
    Sam’s share 31 ? = Rs.1860
    Suresh’s share 15 ? = Rs900
    Sunil’s share 36 ? = Rs2160
  2. Edwin started a business with Rs.25000 and after 4 months, Thomas joined him with Rs.60000. Edwin received Rs.58000 including 10% of profit as commission for managing the business. What amount did Thomas receive?.
    A) Rs 80,000
    B) Rs 72,000
    C) Rs 65,000
    D) Rs 82,000
    E) None
    View Answer
    Option B
    Solution:

    Profit sharing ratio is
    25000*12 : 60000*8=5:8
    Total profit 100%
    Edwin got 10% for Managing the business so remaining 90% is shared by both.
    Edwin got 10%profit + 5/13 * 90%profit
    0.1p + 5/13 * (0.9p)=58,000
    Then 5.8p/13=58000==>p=1,30,000.
    Now Thomas profit is 1,30,000-58,000=72,000.

    A) Rs1500
    B) Rs9300
    C) Rs3100
    D) Rs12,400
    E) None

    36:26:31
    Total profit is Rs 27900
    Then (36+26+31) 93 == 27900
    Diff of Q-R (31-26) 5 ? ==>Rs1500
  4. A starts a business with Rs.40,000. After 2 months, B joined him with Rs.60,000. C joined them after some more time with Rs.1,20,000. At the end of the year, out of a total profit of Rs.3,75,000, C gets Rs.1,50,000 as his share. How many months after B joined the business, did C join?

    C’s share 375000x/(9+x)=150000
    375x/(9+x)=150
    X=6

    C) 25000
    D) 32000
    E) None
    View Answer
    Option A
    Solution:

    sum invested by A = 4x = 48000.
    X = 12000
    Investment made by A, B , C – 48000, 60000, 72000
    Ratio in which the profit will divide- 48000*12 : 60000*12 : 72000*6 + 36000*6
    i.e 8:10:9. So C share = (9/27)*60000 = 20000
  8. M and N invested in a business in which M invest 250 rupee more than N. N invested for 6 months while M invested for 4 months. If M get 200 more than N out of a total profit of 1000. Then the total amount invested in the business.

    B) 650
    C) 750
    D) 850
    E) None
    View Answer
    Option B
    Solution:

    Let N invest ‘x’ rupees so M will invest (x+250)
    Total investment made by M = (x+250)*4 and by N = 6x
    According to the problem- [[4(x+250) – 6x]/(1000+ 10x)]*1000 = 200.
    X = 200. Total investment = 200+250+200 = 650
  9. A, B and C enter into a partnership with a capital in which A’s contribution is Rs. 15,000. If out of a total profit of Rs. 1000, A gets Rs. 500 and B gets Rs. 300, then C’s capital is :
    A) 4000
    B) 5000
    C) 6000
    D) 7000
    E) None
    View Answer
    Option C
    Solution:

    A : B : C = 500 : 300 : 200 = 5 : 3 : 2.
    Let their capitals be 5x, 3x and 2x respectively.
    Then, 5x = 15000
    => x =3000.
    C’s capital = 2x = Rs. 6000.
  10. A, B, C rent a pasture. A puts 15 cows for 6 months, B puts 20cows for 4 months and C puts 10 cows for 8 months for grazing. If the rent of the pasture is Rs. 500, how much must A pay as his share of rent?

    C) 300
    D) 180
    E) None
    View Answer
    Option B
    Solution:

    A:B:C = (15*6) : (20*4): (10*8)= 9:8:8
    A’s rent= (9/25) * 500= Rs.180
