Explanation
A, B and C enter into a partnership with a capital in which A’s contribution is Rs. 10000.
Total profit is Rs. 1000.
A gets Rs. 500.
B gets Rs. 300.
As, A and B’s profit is given (total profit is also given); so C’s profit will be Rs. 200 [1000 – (500 + 300) = 1000 – 800 = Rs. 200].
Profit ratio = 500 : 300 : 200 (5 : 3 : 2)
We also know that, profit is distributed among partners in the ratio of their capitals.
So, 5 unites = 10000 this implies that 2 unites = 4000 which is our required answer.
To Find
Amount invested by y = ?
Solution
Profit of A = 500
Profit of B = 300
Total Profit = 1000
C’s profit = 1000 – (500 + 300) = 1000 – 800 = 200
Profit ratio = 500 : 300 : 200
Profit ratio = 5 : 3 : 2
As, profit is distributed among partners in the ratio of their capitals.
So;
5 units = 10000
1 unit = 10000/5 = 2000
2 units = 2000 x 2 = Rs. 4000 answer
Conclusion
A, B and C enter into a partnership with a capital in which A’s contribution is Rs. 10000. If out of a total profit of Rs. 1000, A gets Rs. 500 and B gets Rs. 300, then C’s capital will be Rs. 4000.
