      Solution

      ATQ, Ratio of profit share: Aisha : Rohan = 5400 : 3600 = 3 : 2 Let, total profit be Rs. 4x. Equal part per person = x. Share from ratio part (2x): Aisha = (3/5)Γ—2x, Rohan = (2/5)Γ—2x Total received: Aisha = x + (3/5)Β·2x = x + 6x/5 = 11x/5 Rohan = x + (2/5)Β·2x = x + 4x/5 = 9x/5 According to question, (11x/5) βˆ’ (9x/5) = 100 β‡’ (2x/5) = 100 β‡’ x = 250 Therefore, total profit = 4x = Rs.1000
