Answers :
1) Answer: E
Profit ratio of Rahul, Renu and Rajesh
= (9000 * 9 + 15000 * 3): (12000 * 9 + (12000 + x ) * 3): (6000 * 12)
= 126000: (144000 + 3x): 72000
From option (A)
126000: (144000 + 18000): 72000 = 126: 162: 72
= 7: 9: 4
Difference profit share of Renu and Rahul = 2/4 * 1600 = 800
This satisfies the given condition.
From option (B)
126000: (144000 + 12000): 72000 = 126: 156: 72
= 21: 26: 12
Difference profit share of Renu and Rahul = 5/12 * 1600 = Rs.666
This doesn’t satisfy the given condition.
From option (C)
126000: (144000 + 9000): 72000 = 126: 153: 72
=14:17:8
Difference profit share of Renu and Rahul =3/8 * 1600 = Rs.600
This satisfies the given condition.
From option (D)
126000: (144000 + 36000): 72000 = 126: 180: 72
= 14: 20: 8
= 7: 10: 4
Difference profit share of Renu and Rahul = ¾ * 1600 = 1200
This satisfies the given condition.
2) Answer: C
The ratio of share of P, Q and R
= > [45000*3 + 45000*(60/100)*9]: [60000*6 + 60000*(70/100)*6]: [70000*3 + 70000*(120/100)*9]
= > 378000: 612000: 966000
= > 63: 102: 161
The share of Q = Rs. 61200
102’s = 61200
1’s = 600
Total profit = 326’s = Rs. 195600
3) Answer: D
Ratio of profits = Ratio of amount*time
Let, initial amounts of A, B and C be 4x, 6x and 9x
Profit ratio = (4x*2 + 4x*6): (6x*2 + 4.5*4 + 12x*6): (9x*2 + 18x*4 + 10x*6)
= (8x + 24x): (12x + 18x + 72x): (18x +72x + 60x) = (32x): (102x): (150x) = 16:51:75
4) Answer: E
Profit ratio of A, B, C and D
= (4000 * 12): (6000 * 12): (8000 * 12): [(12 – x) * y]
(12 – x) * y = 4000 * 12
(12 - x ) * y = 48000
Possible months of the investment of D is 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
48000/y = 12 – x
From (A)
48000/6000 = 12 – x
x = 4 months
This satisfied the given condition.
From (B)
48000/4000 = 12 – x
12 = 12 – x
X = 0
This is not satisfied the given condition.
From (C)
48000/3000 = 12 – x
16 = 12 – x
x = -4
This is not satisfied the given condition.
From (D)
48000/8000 = 12 – x
6 = 12 – x
x = 6
This satisfied the given condition.
5) Answer: D
The share of P, Q and R,
= > 120000 * 12 : 100000 * 12 : 150000 * x
= > 48 : 40 : 5x
Given,
(48 / (40 + 5x)) = (156000 / 227500)
910 = 520 + 65x
390 = 65x
x = 6
The period of time R invested the amount was 6 months.
