      Aman and Rohit invested Rs. 1500 and Rs. 2000 in a venture.

      After 8 months, Suresh joined with Rs. ‘x’. If Aman’s share from total profit of Rs. 900 is Rs. 225, calculate ‘x’.
      A 30000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 19500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 22000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 26500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Investment ratio = 1500 : 2000 : x

      Profit share = (1500 × 12) : (2000 × 12) : (x × 4)= 18000 : 24000 : 4x= 3 : 4 : x/6000

      Now,

      [3 / (3 + 4 + x/6000)] = 225 / 900

      => 7 + x/6000 = 12

      => x/6000 = 5

      => x = 30,000

      So, the value of ‘x’ is Rs.30,000
