e) None of these
Solution
Answer 1. (Option E)
Amar : Bobby : Chintu = (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 2. (Option D)
Suppose Bidhyut invested Rs. x for y months. Then, Akshay invested Rs.3x for 2y months.
So, Akshay : Bidhyut = (3x × 2y) : (x × y) = 6xy : xy = 6 : 1
So, Bidhyut’s profit : total profit = 1 : 7
Let the total profit be Rs. x. Then, 1 / 7 (4000 / x) or x = 28000
Answer 3. (Option A)
Amarinder : Balwinder : Charanjeet = 27000 : 72000 : 81000 = 3 : 8 : 9
So, Charanjeet’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 4. (Option C)
Let the total profit be Rs. z. Then,
Bector’s share = Rs. 2z / 3 , Arnold’s share = Rs. [z - 2z / 3
So, Arnold : Bector =( z / 3) (2z / 3) = 1 : 2
Let the total capital be Rs. x and suppose Bector’s money was used for x months. Then,
y = [ 15 × 2 / 3] = 10
Thus, Bector’s money was used for 10 months.
Answer 5. (Option A)
A : B : C = 35000 : 45000 : 55000 = 7 : 9 : 11
A’s share = Rs. [40500 × 7 / 27] = Rs.10500
B’s share = Rs. [40500 × 9 / 27 ] = Rs.13500
