    D 12 months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Investment of A = 6000 × 12 = Rs. 72000 Investment of B = 10000 × T + 6000 (12-T) ATQ: => 72000/(10000T + 72000 – 6000T) = (70000 – 40000)/40000 => 72/(10T + 72 – 6T) = 3/4 => 72/(4T + 72) = 3/4 => 96 = 4T – 72 => T = 24/4 = 6 months
