      A Rs. 10000 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 Amit and Bhupi = 5:3
      Sum of ratios = 8
      Share of Amit = (5/8) × x = 5000
      x= (5000 × 8)/5
      Total profit: x= 8000
      Amit gets 5000 after 20% donated
      Now, 80% = 8000
      1% = 8000/ 80
      And, 100% = (8000/80) × 100 = 10000
