A and B started a business and out of a total profit of Rs.8800, B takes Rs.700 as a bonus and the remaining profit distributed between them according to their investment. If B invested \(\frac{1}{4}\) more than A. Then find the share of B out of the total profit.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Total profit = 8800
Extra taken by B = 700
Remaining profit = 8800 - 700 = 8100
*If time is same then investment ratio becomes profit ratio*
A : B
Profit: 4 : 5 = 9R
⇒ 9R = 8100
⇒ 1R = 900
B's Profit = 5R = 5 × 900 = 4500
B' s total profit = 4500 + 700 = 5200
