      later, L joins the business, contributing an amount that is 20% more than K's investment. At the end of 10 months, the total profit earned by K and L is ₹86,000. What is L's share of the profit?
      A Rs. 32,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 50,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 30,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 45,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Amount invested by 'L' = Rs. 75,000 X 1.2 = Rs. 90,000 Ratio of profit shares of 'K' to that of 'L': = (75,000 X 10) :(90,000 X 6) = 25:18 Therefore, profit share received by 'L' = 86,000 X (18/43) = Rs. 36,000
