    Question

    Shyam and Tarun invested Rs. 1800 and Rs. 2700 respectively

    in a business. After 6 months, Dinesh joined with Rs. ‘x’. If Shyam’s share from a total annual profit of Rs. 1600 is Rs. 400, then what is the value of ‘x’?
    A 5400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 2200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 2500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Investment ratio = 1800 : 2700 : x

    Profit share = (1800 × 12) : (2700 × 12) : (x × 6)= 21600 : 32400 : 6x= 3600 : 5400 : x

    Now,

    [3600 / (3600 + 5400 + x)] = 400 / 1600

    => 9000 + x = 14400

    => x = 5400

    So, the value of ‘x’ is Rs. 5400
