Question
A and B together start a business with investment of Rs.
1500 and Rs. (x + 500), respectively. If the profit earned after 5 years is Rs. 5000 and share of A is Rs. 2500, then find the value of x.Solution
Ratio of share of profit of A : B = 1500: (x + 500) So, {1500/(x + 2000)} × 5000 = 2500 => 3000 = x + 2000 => x = 1000
