    Question

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

    2:1. If 10% of total profit is donated and A gets 5500 as his share of profit, what is the total profit?
    A Rs. 2750.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 9402.50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 9250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 9850 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 = 2:1
    Share of A = (2/3) × x = 5500
    x= (5500 × 3)/2
    Total profit: x = 8325
    A gets 5500 after 90% donated
    Now, 90% = 8325
    1% = 8325/ 90
    And, 100% = (8325/90) × 100 = 9250
