If P and Q invested in a business, and the profit-sharing ratio is 3:4, and P invested Rs 30,000, how much did Q invest?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Given:

Profit Ratio = 3 : 4

P's Investment = 30,000

Formula:

Profit Ratio = Investment Ratio

P : Q = 3 : 4

3 parts = 30,000

1 part = 30,000 / 3 = 10,000

Q's Investment = 4 × 10,000 = ₹40,000
