    β€˜z’ and Rs. β€˜z + 150’, respectively. If 6 months later the ratio of profit shares of β€˜A’ and β€˜B’ was 2:3, respectively, then find the amount (initially) invested by β€˜B’.

    D Rs.450 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ; [(6 Γ— z)/{(z + 150) Γ— 6}] = (2/3) Or, (6z Γ— 3) = 12 Γ— (z + 150) Or, 18z = 12z + 1800 Or, 6z = 1800 So, z = 300 So, initial investment made by β€˜B’ = 300 + 150 = Rs. 450
