      Question

      A and B invest in a business in the ratio 3:4. After 10

      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?
      A Rs. 24000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 20000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 16000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 18000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the investments made by A and B be 3x and 4x. Ratio of their profits = (3x × 12) + (4x × 10) => 36x : 40x = 9:10 Therefore B’s share = (10/19) × 38000 = Rs. 20000
