    β€˜P’ invested Rs. 30000 in a business. β€˜Q’ joined

    after β€˜x’ months with an investment of Rs. 10000 less than β€˜P’. If the ratio of the profits received by them after 2 years is 3:1, then find the time after which β€˜Q’ joined.
    A 16 months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 14 months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 12 months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 20 months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution


    Respective ratio of the profits received by β€˜P’ and β€˜Q’
    = (30000 Γ— 24) : {20000 Γ— (24 – x)} = 3/1
    Or, 24 – x = 8
    Or, x = 16 months
