Directions (103-105): Avni and Beena started a business by investing Rs. P and Rs.1.2P respectively. After ‘x’ months, Avni withdrew her entire amount and Chetna entered into business. After end of 9 months, Beena increased her initial investment by 25%. On completion of one year, share of Avni and Beena in entire profit was Rs.14200. If Beena would have increased her investment after ‘x’ months, then ratio of share of Avni and Beena in entire profit would have been 10: 27 respectively. If ratio of their profit shares was 20:51, then find the difference between profit shares of Avni and Beena.
- Rs.4350
- Rs.5120
- Rs.6200
- Rs.7200
Correct answer: Rs.6200
Solution
The profit ratio 20:51 means the total profit is split into 71 equal parts. Since the total is Rs. 14200, one part is Rs. 200, and the difference between Beena’s and Avni’s shares is 31 parts, i.e. Rs. 6200.
