      T and H commenced a construction business with

      investments of Rs. 750 and Rs. 900, respectively. After three months, V joined the business, contributing Rs. 1,000. Since T plays an active role as a working partner, he receives 20% of the profit for managing the business. The remaining profit is distributed among them based on their investment ratios. Calculate the profit share of T from the total profit of Rs. 3,750 after one year.
      A Rs.3,587.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.1,657.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.2,587.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.1,687.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Ratio of their profits  = 750 × 12: 900 × 12: 1000 × 9  = 5: 6: 5 Profit share of T for being a working partner  = 0.20 × 3750  = Rs.750 Profit share of T for his investment  = 0.80 × 3750 × (5/16)  = Rs.937.50 So, the total profit share of T  = 750 + 937.50  = Rs.1,687.5
