      Question

      The contributions made by A and B are in the ratio of

      4:5. If 10% of total profit is donated and A gets 8200 as his share of profit, what is the total profit?
      A Rs. 17000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 15000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 20500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 15500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the total profit = x
      The ratio of contribution by A and B = 4:5
      Sum of ratios = 9
      Share of A = (4/9) × x = 8200
      x= (8200 × 9)/4
      Total profit: x= 18450
      A gets 8200 after 10% donated
      Now, 90% = 18450
      1% = 18450/ 90
      And, 100% = (18450/90) × 100 = 20500
