Question:

A and B invest in a business in the ratio 3 : 7 and make the profit of Rs.60,000/- in a year. They reinvest 40% of the profit in their business and distribute the remaining profit among themselves. How much will A get?

Options:

Rs. 25200

Rs. 15600

Rs. 10800

Rs. 20400

Correct Answer:

Rs. 10800

Explanation:

Total Profit = 60000

Profit distributed = 60% of 60000 = 36000

            A    :       B

Profit : 3     :      7 = 10R

10R = 36000

1R = 3600

A's profit = 3R = 3 x 3600 = 10800
