      Question

      Ravi and Kunal initiated a joint venture by contributing

      Rs. 6,000 and Rs. 7,200 respectively. After 6 months, Ravi boosted his investment by 30% and Kunal added Rs. 1,800 more. At the end of the year, what fraction of the total profit does Ravi receive?
      A 25/23 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 22/21 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 23/50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 29/31 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Increased investment of Ravi = 6000 × 1.30 = Rs. 7,800

      Increased investment of Kunal = 7200 + 1800 = Rs. 9,000

      So, respective ratio of profit shares of Ravi and Kunal =

      (6000 × 6 + 7800 × 6):(7200 × 6 + 9000 × 6)

      = (36000 + 46800):(43200 + 54000)

      = 82800:97200

      = 23:27

      So, proportion of profit share of Ravi out of total profit = 23 ÷ (23 + 27) = 23/50
