Partnership

Question:

A, B and C enter into partnership in a business. A gets \(\frac{5}{7}\)th of the profit and B and C distributed the remaining profit equally. If C gets Rs.200 less than A, then the total profit is:

Options:

720

350

650

700

Correct Answer:

350

Explanation:

Let the total profit = 7 unit

A's profit = \(\frac{5}{7}\) of 7 = 5

Remaining profit = 2 unit

B's profit = 1R

C's profit = 1R

ATQ,

Difference b/w A's and C's profit = 5R - 1R = 4R

4R = 200

1R = 50

Total Profit = 7R = 7 × 50 = 350
