    A and B together start a business with investment of Rs.

    2000 and Rs. (x + 900), respectively. If the profit earned after 5 years is Rs. 8000 and share of A is Rs. 3200, then find the value of x.

    C 2100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 2200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ratio of share of profit of A : B = 2000: (x + 900) So, {2000/(x + 2900)} × 8000 = 3200 => 5000 = x + 2900 => x = 2100
