      Question

      After 6 months, C joined with Rs. 30000. At the end of the year, A’s share in profit is Rs. 4800 more than B’s share. Find the total profit earned.
      A Rs.28525 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.30000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.20125 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.22125 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Profit share ratio = (36000 Γ— 12) : (24000 Γ— 12) : (30000 Γ— 6)
      = 432000 : 288000 : 180000
      = 24 : 16 : 10 Sum = 24 + 16 + 10 = 50
      Let total profit = 50x
      ATQ,
      24x – 16x = 4800
      8x = 4800
      x = 600 Total profit = 50 Γ— 600 = Rs. 30000
