A,B and C enter into a partnership investing Rs 35000, Rs 45000 and 55000. Find the their respective shares in annual profit of 40,500

  • 10500, 13500, 19500
  • 10500, 13500, 18500
  • 10500, 13500, 17500
  • 10500, 13500, 16500

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

A:B:C = 35000:45000:55000 = 7:9:11

A's share = (7/27) *40500 = Rs 10500
B's share = (9/27) *40500 = Rs 13500
C's share = (11/27)*40500 = Rs 16500

[In options we can see that only salary of C is different in all options. So we cn just calculate the C share to solve question quickly :) ]

1. Nirmal and Kapil started a business investing Rs. 9000 and Rs. 12000 respectively. After 6 months, Kapil withdrew half of his investment. If after a year, the total profit was Rs. 4600, what was Kapil’s share initially ?

  • Rs 2300
  • Rs 2400
  • Rs 2500
  • None of above

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Nirmal:Kapil = 9000*12:(12000*6+6000*6) = 1:1

Kapils share = Rs. [4600 *(1/2)) = Rs. 2300

2. Arun, Kamal and Vinay invested Rs. 8000, Rs. 4000 and Rs. 8000 respectively in a business. Arun left after six months. If after eight months, there was a gain of Rs. 4005, then what will be the share of Kamal?

  • Rs 870
  • Rs 880
  • Rs 890
  • Rs 900

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Arun : Kamal : Vinay = (8,000 x 6) : (4,000 x 8) : (8,000 x 8)
= 48 : 32 : 64
= 3 : 2 : 4

\begin{aligned}
\text{Kamal's share}= 4005 * \frac{2}{9}\\
= Rs 890

3. A and B started a partnership business investing some amount in the ratio of 3 : 5. C joined them after six months with an amount equal to that of B. In what proportion should the profit at the end of one year be distributed amount A, B and C

  • 3:7:5
  • 6:10:5
  • 6:10:7
  • 6:7:5

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let initial investment of A is 3x and B is 5x, then C investment is also 5x, but most important to note in this question is the time duration of investment
Like, A invested for 12 months, B invested for 12 months and C invested for 6 months.

A:B:C =(3x*12):(5x*12):(5x*6)
= 36:60:30
= 6:10:5

4. Rs. 700 is divided among A, B, C so that A receives half as much as B and B half as much as C. Then C's share is

  • Rs 200
  • Rs 300
  • Rs 400
  • Rs 500

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let C = x.
Then B = x/2
and A = x/4

A:B:C = 1:2:4.
C's share Rs.[(4/7)*700) = 400
