A and B jointly start a business. The investment of A is equal to seven times the investment of B. Find the share of A (in Rs.) in the annual profit of Rs. 275000.

Correct option is A

Given:
Let B's investment = Rs. x
Then A's investment = Rs. 7x
Total profit = Rs. 275000
Formula Used:
A's share = (A's investment / Total investment) × Total profit
Solution:
​$$A's \, share = \left(\frac{7x}{x + 7x}\right) \times 275000 \\= \left(\frac{7}{8}\right) \times 275000 \\= \text{Rs. } 240625$$​​
