Question
A invested Rs. (P + 1200). After 3 months, B joined with
Rs. 3P. If B’s share to A’s share of the annual profit is 9:5, determine (P − 600).Solution
ATQ,
Ratio of profit share of A and B respectively:
= [(P + 1200) × 12] : [3P × 9]
= (12P + 14400) : 27P
= (4P + 4800) : 9P (dividing by 3)
ATQ;
(4P + 4800) : 9P = 5 : 9
Or, 4P + 4800 = 5P
Or, P = 4800
Required value = 4800 − 600 = 4200
