    The contributions made by A and B are in the ratio of 6:5. If 12% of total profit is donated and A gets 1320 as his share of profit, what is the total profit?

    A Rs. 2750 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 2050 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 2700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 2850 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the total profit = x The ratio of contribution by A and B = 6:5 Share of A = (6/11) × x = 1320 x= (1320 × 11)/6 Total profit: x = 2420 A gets 1320 after 88% donated Now, 88% = 2420 1% = 2420/ 88 And, 100% = (2420/88) × 100 = 2750
