A and B invest ₹45,000 and 60,000 respectively. A remains in business for 8 months, B for 6 months. If the total profit is 36,000, what is A's share?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. ₹18,000.
A : B = (45000 × 8) : (60000 × 6) = 360000 : 360000 = 1 : 1
A's share = 36000 × 1/2 = 18000
