Question
A invests Rs. (P + 800). After four months, B joins
with Rs. 3P. If the ratio of B’s annual profit share to A’s is 6:5, find (P − 200).Solution
ATQ, Ratio of profit share of A and B respectively: = [(P + 800) × 12] : [3P × 8] = (3P + 2400) : 6P ATQ; (3P + 2400) : 6P = 5 : 6 Or, 3P + 2400 = 5P Or, 2P = 2400 Or, P = 1200 Required value = 1200 − 200 = 1000
