Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 5000 Given: Total profit made by Prabhakar and Suraj = Rs. 11000 1/3 of Suraj’s profit = 2/5 Prabhakar’s profit Calculation: 1/3 of Suraj’s profit = 2/5 Prabhakar’s profit Suraj’s profit ∶ Prabhakar’s profit = 6 ∶ 5 Let profit of Suraj be 6x So, the Profit of Prabhakar = 5x Total of Suraj and Prabhakar's profit = 6x + 5x = 11x ⇒ 11x = Rs. 11000 ⇒ x = Rs. 11000/11 ⇒ x = Rs. 1000 ⇒ Prabhakar's profit = 1000 × 5 = Rs. 5000 ∴ Profit of prabhakar is Rs. 5000 |
