Question

    The contributions made by Ajay and Bhola are in the

    ratio of 3:5. If 20% of total profit is donated and Amit gets 9000 as his share of profit, what is the total profit?
    A Rs. 10000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 30000 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 Ajay and Bhola = 3:5
    Share of Ajay = (3/8) × x = 9000
    x= (9000 × 8)/3
    Total profit: x = 24000
    Ajay gets 9000 after 20% donated
    Now, 80% = 24000
    1% = 24000/ 80
    And, 100% = (24000/80) × 100 = 30000
