Partnership

Question:

A, B and C enter into partnership in a business. A gets \(\frac{9}{13}\)th of the profit and B and C distributed the remaining profit equally. If C gets Rs.560 less than A, then the total profit is:

Options:

720

1040

1140

980

Correct Answer:

1040

Explanation:

Let the total profit = 13 unit

A's profit = \(\frac{9}{13}\) of 13 = 9

Remaining profit = 4 unit

B's profit = 2R

C's profit = 2R

ATQ,

Difference b/w A's and C's profit = 9R - 2R = 7R

7R = 560

1R = 80

Total Profit = 13R = 13 × 80 = 1040
