Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Rs. 35,000 Given: Abhay's investment = Rs. 30,000 Bhawna's investment = Rs. 28,000 Total profit = Rs. 84,000 Concept used: Divide the total profit according to investment ratio. Calculations: The total investment of Abhay in 8 months = 30000 × 8 The total investment of Bhawna in 4 months = 28000 × 12 The ratio of equivalent capitals of Abhay and Bhawna = (30000 × 8) ∶ (28000 × 12) = 5 ∶ 7 Thus Abhay’s share = 84000 × (5/12) = Rs. 35,000 ∴ The share of Abhay is Rs. 35,000. |
