Question

A and B together start a business with investment of Rs. 2100 and Rs. (x + 800), respectively. If the profit earned after 5 years is Rs. 7000 and share of A is Rs. 3000, then find the value of x.

A 1650 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 2000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 2100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 2200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Ratio of share of profit of A : B = 2100: (x + 800) So, {2100/(x + 2900)} × 7000 = 3000 => 4900 = x + 2900 => x = 2000
