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
