After three months, Raju withdrew (2/3)rd of his initial capital, Shyam withdrew half of his initial capital and Baburao invested Rs. 4000 more. Shyam being active partner gets 20% of the total profit as extra amount and rest profit is shared among them in the ratio of their investment.

    Solution

    Profit share ratio of Raju, Shyam and Baburao, respectively = [3(X + 2000) + 9(X + 2000)/3]:[3(X + 10000) + 9(X + 10000)/2]:[(28000 × 3) + (32000 × 9)] = (3X + 6000 + 3X + 6000):(3X + 30000 + 4.5X + 45000):(84000 + 288000) = (6X + 12000):(7.5X + 75000):372000 Total profit share = Rs. 40500 Extra profit share of Q = 40500 × 20% = Rs. 8100 Remaining profit share = 40500 – 8100 = Rs. 32400 Profit share of Baburao = 372000/(6x + 12000 + 7.5X + 75000 + 372000) 13950/32400 = 372000/(13.5X + 459000) 155/360 = 124000/(4.5X + 153000) 31/72 = 124000/(4.5X + 153000) 31(4.5X + 153000) = 72 × 124000 31(0.5X + 17000) = 8 × 124000 0.5X + 17000 = 8 × 4000 0.5X = 32000 - 17000 X = 15000/0.5 X = 30000 25% of X = 1/4 x 30000 = 7500
