Explanations:
1).
Sekar:Rajeev:Jatin=
[25000×12+35000×12+45000 × 12 : 35000×24] : [35000×12] = 1260000 : 840000 :
420000
=
3 : 2 : 1.
Rajeev's
share =Rs.[150000 × 2/6] = Rs.50000.
Answer: b)
2).
Let
the total profit be Rs. 100.
After
paying to charity, A's share = Rs. (95 x 3/5) = Rs. 57.
If
A's share is Rs. 57, total profit = Rs. 100.
If
A's share Rs. 855, total profit = 100/57 x 855 = 1500
Answer: b)
3).
For
managing, A received = 5% of Rs. 7400 = Rs. 370.
Balance
= Rs. (7400 - 370) = Rs. 7030.
Ratio
of their investments = (6500 x 6) : (8400 x 5) : (10000 x 3)
=
39000 : 42000 : 30000
=
13 : 14 : 10
B’s
share = Rs. [7030 × 14/37] = Rs.2660
Answer: b)
4).
Ration
of initial investments = [ 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5] = 105 : 40 : 36
Let
the initial investments be 105x, 40x and 36x.
A
: B : C = [105x × 4 + 150/100 × 105x × 8] : [40x × 12] : [36x × 12]
=
1680x : 480x : 432x = 35 : 10 : 9
Hence,
B’s Share = Rs. [21600 × 10/54]
=
Rs.4000
Answer: d)
5).
Let
C = x.
Then,
B = x + 5000 and A = x + 5000 + 4000 = x + 9000.
So,
x + x + 5000 + x + 9000 = 50000
3x
= 36000
x
= 12000
A
: B : C = 21000 : 17000 : 12000 = 21 : 17 : 12
A’s
Share = Rs. [35000 × 21/50] = 14700
Answer: d)
6).
A
: B = 3 : 2
B
: A = 2 : 3 = 4 : 6 and A : C = 2 : 1 = 6 : 3
So,
B : A : C = 4 : 6 : 3 or A : B : C = 6 : 4 : 3
B’s
share = Rs. [157300 × 4/13] = Rs.48400
Answer: c)
7).
Ratio
of their shares = 22500 : 35000 = 9 : 14
Deepak’s
share = Rs. [13800 × 14/23] = Rs.8400
Answer: c)
8).
A
: B : C = (25 lakhs × 1) + (35 lakhs × 2) : (35 lakhs × 2 + 25 lakhs × 1) : (30
lakhs × 3)
=
95 lakhs : 95 lakhs : 90 lakhs = 19 : 19 : 18
Answer: c)
9).
Suppose
B invested Rs. x for y months. Then, A invested Rs.3x for 2y months.
So,
A : B = (3x × 2y) : (x × y) = 6xy : xy = 6 : 1
So,
B’s profit : total profit = 1 : 7
Let
the total profit be Rs. x. Then, 1/7 = 4000/𝑥 or x = 28000
Answer: d)
10).
A
: B : C = 27000 : 72000 : 81000 = 3 : 8 : 9
So,
C’s share : total profit = 9 : 20
Let
the total profit be Rs. x. Then, 9/20 = 36000/𝑥 or x = (36000 × 20) / 9 =
80000
Answer: a)
