Question
‘A’ and ‘B’ started a business by investing Rs.
(x + 200) and Rs. (x – 800) for 8 months and 7 months, respectively. If the profit share of ‘A’ is Rs. 6900 out of total profit of Rs. 11500, then find the value of ‘x’.Solution
According to the question,
Profit share of ‘B’ = 11500 – 6900 = Rs. 4600
Therefore, {(x + 200) × 8}:{(x – 800) × 7} = 6900:4600
Or, 16(x + 200) = 21(x – 800)
Or, 16x + 3200 = 21x – 16800
Or, 5x = 20000
Or, x = 4000
