After 5 months, B invested 40% more than what he had invested earlier. If the total profit at the end of one year was Rs 50,550, then how much profit did A earn?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Capital ratio 43:52:65\frac{4}{3}:\frac{5}{2}:\frac{6}{5} multiplied by 30: 40:75:3640 : 75 : 36.

A: 40×12=48040 \times 12 = 480.

B: 75×5+105×7=375+735=111075 \times 5 + 105 \times 7 = 375 + 735 = 1110.

C: 36×12=43236 \times 12 = 432.

Total =2022= 2022. A's share =4802022×50550=480×25=12000= \frac{480}{2022} \times 50550 = 480 \times 25 = 12000.
