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

    1800 and Rs. (x + 900), respectively. If the profit earned after 5 years is Rs. 7000 and share of A is Rs. 3000, then find the value of x.

    B 2000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ratio of share of profit of A : B = 1800: (x + 900) So, {1800/(x + 2700)} × 7000 = 3000 => 4200 = x + 2700 => x = 1500
