      Question

      'R' and 'S' started a business by investing Rs. 9,000

      and Rs. 12,000 respectively. 15% of total profit is given to 'R' for managing the business, and rest of the profit is distributed between them in the ratio of investment. If at the end of a year, total profit received by 'R' is Rs. 3,600, then find the total profit.
      A Rs. 6,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 7,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 8,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 9,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Rs. 7,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Ratio of profit share of 'R' to 'S' = 9000:12000 = 3:4 Let the total profit be Rs. '70p' So, 0.15 X 70p + (3/7) X 0.85 X 70p = 3,600 Or, 10.5p + 25.5p = 3,600 Or, 36p = 3,600 Or, 'p' = 100 Therefore, total profit = 70 X 100 = Rs. 7,000
