      β€˜R’ invested Rs. 20000 in a business. β€˜S’ joined

      after β€˜x’ months with an investment of Rs. 4000 less than β€˜R’. If the ratio of the profits received by them after 2 years is 5:2, then find the time after which β€˜S’ 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€˜R’ and β€˜S’
      = (20000 Γ— 24) : {16000 Γ— (24 – x)} = 5/2
      Or, 24 – x = 12
      Or, x = 12 months
