Ans: 105000
Explanation:
Let the total investment Rs. x
Then 20% of x = 98000

Let the capitals P, Q, R be Rs. 5x, 6x, 6x respectively.
∴ 5x × 12 + 6x × 12 + 6x × 6 = 490000
⇒ 168x = 490000 ⇒ x = 2916.66
R’s investment = 6x × 6 = 36 × 2916.66 = 105000

(1) Rs. 642         (2) Rs. 1400     (3) Rs. 632       (4) Rs. 462     (5) Rs. 623
Ans:  Rs. 632      
Explanation:
Let the investment of B = x
A’s investment = x + 768
From question,
A’s share = 42 + B’s share ...(1)
Actual (A + B)’s share = 358 ...(2)
From (1) and (2)
A’s share = 200, B’s share = 158
∴ (x + 768) 4 = x × 7 = 200 : 158
⇒ (x + 768) 4 × 158 = 7x × 200
⇒ 158x + 158 × 768 = 350x
⇒ 192x = 768 × 158 ⇒ x = Rs. 632.
∴ B’s Capital = Rs. 632.

15. Rahul and Raju start a business with investment of Rs. 2500 and Rs. 2250 respectively. After 2 months, Rahul takes out Rs. 1250 from his capital.

Which of the following is the share of Rahul ?
(1) 800       (2) 900      (3) 840    (4) 900     (5) 700
Ans: 800
Explanation:
Rahul investment = 2500
After 2 months he withdraw Rs. 1250 from capital.
∴ Rahul invested for Rs. 2500, 2 months and (2500 – 1250) = 1250 for 4 months.
Raju = (2250 – 750) = 1500 for 3 months
Their ratio
= (2500 × 2 + 1250 × 4) : (2250 × 3 + 1500 × 3) : 3500 × 3
= 10000 : 11250 : 10500 = 40 : 45 : 42.
Total profit for 6 months = Rs. 2540
