A and B invest in a business in the ratio 3:5. After 8
months B leaves the business after withdrawing his investment. In the first year the business made a profit of Rs. 38000. What is B’s share (in Rs) of this profit?Solution
Let the investments made by A and B be 3x and 5x. Ratio of their profits = (3x × 12) + (5x × 8) => 36x : 40x = 9:10 Therefore B’s share = (10/19) × 38000 = Rs. 20000
