    Question

    Aman and Bhavya started a business together. Aman

    invested Rs. 400 more than Bhavya. Aman pulled out his money after 4 months, while Bhavya kept her investment for the full year. If at the end of the year, their profit shares were in the ratio of 2:3 (Aman:Bhavya), what was Aman's investment?
    A Rs.800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.660 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let Bhavya’s investment = Rs. y Then Aman's investment = Rs. (y + 400) Profit share ratio = [(y + 400) × 4] : [y × 12] → (y + 400) : 3y = 2 : 3 Cross-multiplying: 3(y + 400) = 6y → 3y + 1,200 = 6y → 3y = 1,200 → y = 400 So, Aman's investment = 400 + 400 = Rs. 800
