Find the difference between Akash and Chirag’s profit if the total profit of the business after the end of the year is Rs. 35550.Solution
Month ratios 5:9:4 Ratios are Akash : Brijesh = (8:7) Brijesh : Chirag = (5:7) To make the ratios proportionate Akash : Brijesh = (8:7) X 5 = 40:35 Brijesh : Chirag = (5:7) X 7 = 35: 49 Investment ratio of Akash: Brijesh : Chirag = 40:35:49 Investment of Akash = 40 X 5 = 200 Investment of Brijesh = 35 X 9 = 315 Investment of Chirag = 49 X 4 = 196 200+315+196 = 711 711x = 35550 X=50 Akash’s profit = 50 X 200 Chirag’s profit = 50 X 196 Difference = 50 X (200-196) = 200
