Question
If 4 (P’s Capital) = 6(Q’s Capital) = 10(R’s Capital), then out of the total profit of Rs 5580, what is R’s share?
Solution
Let ‘p’, ‘q’ and ‘r’ be P, Q, and R’s Capital for the business respectively.
∴ 4p = 6q = 10r
L.C.M of 4, 6, 10 = 60
∴ We take 4p = 6q = 10r = 60x
∴ p = 15x, q = 10x, r = 6x
∴ p : q : r = 15 : 10 : 6
Given that total profit = ₹ 5580,
R’s share in the profit = `6/31 xx 5580`
= ₹ 1080/-
