    Ravi and Suman invested Rs. 6000 and Rs. 9000 respectively

    in a business. Ravi kept his investment for 10 months, while Suman kept it for 8 months. If Ravi’s share of the profit is Rs. 2500, find the total profit made by both.
    A Rs.6000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.5500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.2500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.4500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Ratio of profit shares of Ravi and Suman = (6000 × 10):(9000 × 8) = 60000:72000 = 5:6

    So, profit share of Suman = 2500 × (6/5) = Rs. 3000

    And so, total profit of Ravi and Suman = 2500 + 3000 = Rs.5500
