Question

In a partnership business, the capital of A is 1\frac{1}{2} times that of B. At the end of the year if B gets ₹ 1,500 as a share of the profit, find the share of A.

WBBSE Class X Mathematics Partnership 02 Mark 2023

Answer

Capiatal ratio of A and B = \frac{3}{2} : 1 = 3 : 2

Sum of ratio = 3 + 2= 5

Profit share of B = ₹ 1500

Let P be the total profit

or, \frac{2}{5} × P = ₹ 1500

or, P = ₹ 1500 × \frac{5}{2} = ₹ 3750

Profit share of A = \frac{3}{5} × 3750 = ₹ 2250
