Partnership

Question:

A, B and C enter into partnership in a business. A gets \(\frac{7}{11}\)th of the profit and B and C distributed the remaining profit equally. If C gets Rs.350 less than A, then the total profit is:

Options:

800

670

770

750

Correct Answer:

770

Explanation:

Let the total profit = 11 unit

A's profit = \(\frac{7}{11}\) of 11 = 7

Remaining profit = 4 unit

B's profit = 2R

C's profit = 2R

ATQ,

Difference b/w A's and C's profit = 7R - 2R = 5R

5R = 350

1R = 70

Total Profit = 11R = 11 × 70 = 770
