Akshay and Sunil are partners in a business. Akshay contributes \(\frac{1}{6}\) of the capital for 15 months and Sunil received \(\frac{2}{5}\) of the profit. For how long Sunil's money was used?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Akshay Sunil Total
Capital 1 5 ⇒ 6
Time 15 x
-----------------------------------------------------------
Profit 3 2 ⇒ 5
Now, ATQ
\(\frac{1 × 15}{5 × x}\) = \(\frac{3}{2}\)
x = \(\frac{15 × 2 }{3 × 5}\)
x = 2 months
