Question:

The contributions made by Ravi and Suresh are in the ratio of 3:2. If 5% of total profit is donated and Ravi gets 8550 as his share of profit, what is the total profit?

Options:

14,000

15,000

16000

17000

Correct Answer:

15,000

Explanation:

Investment ratio of  Ravi: Suresh = 3: 2

That means - 3R → 8550,

1R = 2850

5R = 14250

So, Total profit (after donation) → 14250

5% of total profit is donated .

Total profit (before donation) → \(\frac{ 14250 }{95}\) × 100 = 15000
