Example 6 : A, B and C investment in a partnership in the ratio of 5 : 6 : 8. Ratio of their profit is 5 : 3 : 12. Find the ratio of time for their investment ?
Solution :
Required Ratio = (5/5) : (3/6) : (12/8)
= 1 : (1/2) : (3/2)
= 2 : 1 : 3
Example 7 : Three people A, B and C invested money in a partnership in the ratio of 4 : 2 : 8 ratio of their time of investment is 3 : 3 : 2. What is the ratio of their profit ?
Solution :
Required ratio = 4 x 3 : 2 x 3 : 8 x 2
= 12 : 6 : 16
= 6 : 3 : 8
Example 8 : P, Q and R are partners in a business. P puts in Rs. 350, Rs. 450 and R Rs. 550. What is the share of R in a profit of Rs. 405 at the end of the year ?
Solution :
P, Q, R's investments 350 : 450 : 550
Profit ratio 350 : 450 : 550
= 7 : 9 : 11
Total Profit = 27 parts = 405
R's profits = (405/27) x 11 = 165
Example 9 : x and y enter into partnership. x contributed Rs.6,000 for 4 months and y Rs. 5,000 for 8 months. What is the share of profit of y out of Rs. 6,000 ?
Solution :
x, y's investments 6000 5000
Investment period 4 8
Profit ratio = > 6000 x 4 : 5000 x 8
=> 24 : 40
= > 3 : 5
Total profit = 8 parts = 6000
y's share = 5 parts = (6000/8) x 5 = 3750
Example 10 : A, B and C enter into partnership. A puts in Rs. 1200 for 6 months, B Rs. 800 for 7 months and C Rs. 600 for 8 months. What is the share of A out of the profit Rs. 396 ?
Solution :
A, B, C's investments 12000 800 600
Investment period 6 7 8
Profit ratio 72 : 56 : 48
9 : 7 : 6
Total profit = 22 parts = 396
A's share = 9 parts = (396/22) x 9 = 162
Example 11 : Anita, Sunitha and Kavitha are three partners in a partnership. Anitha subscribe 1/3 of the capital and Sunitha 1/4 and Kavitha, the rest. What is the share of Kavitha in the total profit of Rs. 600 ?
Solution :
Anita, Sunitha, Kavitha's investment
=1/3, 1/4, 1 - [ (1/3) + (1/4) ]
Profit ratio = 1/3 : 1/4 : 5/12
Total profit = 12 parts = 600 = 4 : 3 : 5
Share of Kavitha = 5 parts = (600/12) X 5 = 250
Example 12 : Abhishikitha and Pranavi start a business with Rs. 7500 and Rs. 6000 respectively. Abhishikita is a sleeping partner and Pranavi gets 12.5% of the profit for managing the business. How should a profit of Rs. 1440 be divided between them ?
Solution :
Abhishikitha, Pranavi's invest 7500, 6000
Profit ratio = 7500 : 6000
= 5 : 4
Abhishikita is sleeping partner,
So Pranavi's profit for managing business in total profit = 1440 x 12.5% = Rs. 180
Remaining profit = (5+4) parts = 9 parts
= 1440 - 180 = Rs. 1260
Abhishikita's share
= 1260 x (5/9) = Rs. 700
Pranavi's share = 180 + 1260 x (4/9) = Rs. 740
Example 13 : Sowmith began business with Rs. 4500 and was later joined by Mourya with Rs. 5400. WHen did Mourya join if the profits at the end of the year were divided in the ratio of 2 : 1 ?
Solution :
Let Mourya's joining time 'x'
Sowmith, Mourya's investments Rs. 4500 Rs. 5400
Investment period 12 (12-x)
Profit ratio = 4500 x 12 : 5400 x (12x)
= 10 : (12 - x)
But, given ratio 2 : 1
=> 10/(12 - x) = 2/1
12 - x = 10/2
24 - 2x = 10
=> 2x = 14
=> x = 7
Example 14 : Avinash began business with Rs. 4200 and was joined afterward by Nikhilesh with Rs. 7200. When did Nikhilesh join if the profits at the end of a year were divided equally ?
Solution :
Let period 'x'
Avinash, Nikhilesh investments 42000, 7200
Investment period 12 (12-x)
Profit ratio = 4200 x 12 : 7200 (12-x)
From data, profits are equal then
=> 4200 x 12 =7200 x (12-x)
7 = 12-x
x = 5
Example 15 : Prabath and Rohith enter into partnership which capitals as 5 : 6. At the end of 8 months, Prabath withdraws; if they receive the profits in the ratio of 5 : 9, find how long Rohith's capital was used ?
Solution :
Let period 'x'
Prabath, Rohith's investment ratio = 5 : 6
Investment period 8 : x
Profit ratio 40 : 6x
given ratio = 5 : 9
=> 40/6x = 5/9
=> x = 12
