P, Q and R are partners and invest in a business. P invests 1/5th of total investments and Q invests 1/4th of the total investments. What is the ratio of investments of P, Q and R respectively ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Let the total investment be 20 units
Then, P's investment = \(\frac{1}{5}\) x 20 = 4
Q's investment = \(\frac{1}{4}\) x 20 = 5
Remaining = 20 - 5- 4 = 11
Ratio of investment P : Q : R
4 : 5 : 11
