    β€˜X’ invested Rs. 28000 in a business. β€˜Y’ joined

    after β€˜x’ months with an investment of Rs. 12000 less than β€˜X’. If the ratio of the profits received by them after 2 years is 7:3, then find the time after which β€˜Y’ 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
    E 10 months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Respective ratio of the profits received by β€˜X’ and β€˜Y’
    = (28000 Γ— 24) : {16000 Γ— (24 – x)} = 7/3
    Or, 24 – x = 10
    Or, x = 14 months
