Question

Three friends A, B, and C started a business with capitals ₹ x, 2x and y respectively, at the end of the term profit is ₹ z, then the share of the profit of A is

(a) ₹ \frac{\text{xz}}{\text{3x+y}}

(b) ₹ \frac{\text{2xz}}{\text{3x+y}}

(c) ₹ \frac{\text{z}}{\text{2x+y}}

(d) ₹ \frac{\text{xyz}}{\text{3x+y}}

WBBSE Class X Mathematics Partnership 01 Mark 2023

Answer

(a) ₹ \frac{\text{xz}}{\text{3x+y}}

Explanation

Ratio of the share = x : 2x : y

Total amount = x + 2x + y = 3x + y

Profit = z

A’s profit shares = \text{\text{x}}\over \text{\text{3x + y}} × z

= \frac{\text{xz}}{\text{3x+y}}
