Q:
If 6 (P's Capital ) = 8 ( Q's Capital ) = 12 ( R's Capital ) , then out of the total profit of Rs 4650 , R will receive ?
Answer & Explanation
Answer: A) Rs. 1033.33
Explanation: Let
P's capital = p,
Q's capital = q and
R's capital = r.
Then
6p = 8q = 12r
=> 3p = 4q = 6r
=>q = 3p/4
r = 3p/6 = p/2
P : Q : R = p : 3p/4 : p/2
= 4 : 3 : 2
R's share = 4650 * (2/9) = 150*6 = Rs. 1033.33.
