Question

    ‘A’ and ‘B’ invested Rs. 4400 and Rs. 2800,

    respectively in a business, together. After 7 months, ‘A’ withdrew 25% of his initial investment. If the total profit received by them after 1 year and 2 months is Rs.3895, then find the profit received by ‘A’.
    A Rs.2826 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.2255 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.3204 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.3445 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Rs.4164 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ratio of the profits received by ‘A’ to ‘B’ => {(4400 × 7) + (3300 × 7) }:(2800 × 14) = 11:8 Therefore, profit received by ‘A’ = 3895 × (11/19) = Rs.2255
