'A' and 'B' started a partnership by investing Rs. 9,000
and Rs. 12,000 respectively. 25% of the total profit is given to 'A' for managing the business, and the remaining profit is distributed according to their investment. If 'A' received Rs. 6,000 in total as profit, find the total profit.Solution
ATQ,
Ratio of profit share of 'A' to 'B' = 9000:12000 = 3:4 Let the total profit be Rs. 140p So, 0.25 × 140p + (3/7) × 0.75 × 140p = 6,000 Or, 35p + 45p = 6,000 Or, 80p = 6,000 Or, p = 75 Therefore, total profit = 140 × 75 = Rs. 10,500
