    Question

    P, Q and R started a business. P and Q invested 25% and

    50% more than R respectively. If total profit at the end of the year is Rs. 32000, find Q’s share in the profit.
    A Rs.15011 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.12800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.17212 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.16138 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let R’s capital be Rs. ‘x’

    Then, P’s capital = Rs. ‘1.25x’, Q’s capital = Rs. ‘1.5x’

    Profit sharing ratio of P : Q : R = 1.25x : 1.5x : x = 25 : 30 : 20

    Q’s share = (30 / (25 + 30 + 20)) × 32000 = (30 / 75) × 32000 = Rs. 12800
