    Question

    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
