    Question

    Sneha and Rakesh started a business by investing Rs.

    22,000 and Rs. 28,000, respectively. After 9 months, Vikram joined them with an investment equal to the average investments of Sneha and Rakesh together. If at the end of 1.5 years, the profit share of Vikram is Rs. 7,200, then find the profit share (in Rs.) of Rakesh.
    A Rs.13000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.15600 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.12600 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.16128 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Investment made by Vikram = (1/2) X (22000 + 28000) = Rs. 25,000 Ratio of profit shares of Sneha, Rakesh, and Vikram respectively: = (22000 X 18) : (28000 X 18) : (25000 X 9) = 396000 : 504000 : 225000 = 44 : 56 : 25 Therefore, profit share of Rakesh = (7200/25) X 56 = Rs. 16,128
