Question
The contributions made by A and B are in the ratio of
3:2. If 5% of total profit is donated and A gets 8550 as his share of profit, what is the total profit?Solution
Let the total profit = x
The ratio of contribution by A and B = 3:2
Share of A = (3/2) × x = 8550
x= (8550 × 2)/3
Total profit: x = 14250
A gets 8550 after 95% donated
Now, 95% = 14250
1% = 14250/ 95
And, 100% = (14250/95) × 100 = 15000
