    C 610 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 720 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ratio of profit share of A to B = [x + 70 + x + 70 + 60]:[x – 50 + x – 50 + 120] = [2x + 200]:[2x + 20] According to question; (2x + 200)/(2x + 20) = 9/8 => 16x + 1600 = 18x + 180 => 2x = 1420 => x = 710
