Question
‘P’, ‘Q’ and ‘R’ put in ₹32,000, ₹20,000
and ₹28,000 respectively. They remain invested for 3 months, 6 months and 9 months. If the total profit is ₹58,500, find Q’s share of the profit.Solution
Respective ratio of the profits = (32000 × 3) : (20000 × 6) : (28000 × 9) = 96000 : 120000 : 252000 = 8 : 10 : 21 Therefore, profit of Q = 58500 × (10/39) = ₹15,000
