      Question

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

      2:3. If 20% of total profit is donated and A gets 5890 as his share of profit, what is the total profit?
      A Rs. 10000.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 30000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 18406.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 15500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the total profit = x
      The ratio of contribution by A and B = 2:3
      Share of A = (2/5) × x = 5890
      x= (5890 × 5)/2
      Total profit: x = 14725
      A gets 5890 after 20% donated
      Now, 80% = 14725
      1% = 14725/ 80
      And, 100% = (14725/80) × 100 = 18406.25
