    Question

    P invests half as much as Q and Q puts in half as much as R in a business. If the monthly profit of Rs.7000 is shared between them, then what is the share of R?

    A.

    Rs.2000

    B.

    Rs.3000

    C.

    Rs.1000

    D.

    Rs.4000

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    Monthly Profit = 7000.

    Calculation:

    Let money invested by R be Rs. 8

    So, money invested by Q = 8 ×1/(2 )=4

    Money invested by P = 4 ×1/(2 )=2

    Profit ratio of P, Q and R = 8 : 4 : 2 = 4 : 2 : 1

    Total = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 unit

    as per the question,

    7 unit = Rs. 7000

    1 unit = 7000/7 = 1000

    Share of R = 4 unit = 4 × 1000 = Rs. 4000
