Three partners shared the profit in a business in the ratio of 4 : 9 : 11. They invested the capital for 2 months, 3 months, and 5 months. What was the ratio of their capitals ? |
9 : 12 : 10 5 : 6 : 7 11 : 15 : 10 10 : 15 : 11 |
10 : 15 : 11 |
Profit = Investment × time I : II : III Time ⇒ 2 : 3 : 5 Profit ⇒ 4 : 9 : 11 ---------------------------------------- Inv. ⇒ \(\frac{4}{2}\) : \(\frac{9}{3}\) : \(\frac{11}{5}\) = 2 : 3 : \(\frac{11}{5}\) = 10 : 15 : 11 [*Inv. Ratio = \(\frac{Profit\;ratio}{Time.\;ratio}\)] |
