Question

    A and B together start a business with investment of Rs. 2100 and Rs. (x + 800), respectively. If the profit earned after 5 years is Rs. 7000 and share of A is Rs. 3000, then find the value of x.

    A 1650 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 2000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    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 = 2100: (x + 800) So, {2100/(x + 2900)} × 7000 = 3000 => 4900 = x + 2900 => x = 2000
