Question
‘D’ started a business by investing Rs. 1,600. Seven
months later, ‘E’ joined him by investing 50% of D’s capital. If total profit after one year is Rs. 3,625, find E’s share in the profit.Solution
Amount invested by ‘E’ = 1600 × 0.5 = Rs. 800
Ratio of profit shares of ‘D’ and ‘E’ = (12 × 1600):(5 × 800) = 19200:4000 = 24:5
So, profit share of ‘E’ = 3625 × (5/29) = Rs. 625
