Kamal started a business investing Rs. 9000. After five months, Sameer joined with a capital of Rs. 8000. If at the end of the year, they earn a profit of Rs. 6970, then what will be the share of Sameer in the profit ?


A) 2380

B) 2880.34

C) 2360

D) 3846

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Kamal : Sameer $=(9000\times 12)$ $:(8000\times 7)$

$=108:56$ $=27:14$.

Sameer's share = Rs. $\left(6970\times\frac{14}{41}\right)$ = Rs. 2380.
