Question

Prakash and Inaya started a business investing ₹77,000 and ₹84,000 respectively. In what ratio the profit earned after 2 years be divided between Prakash and Inaya respectively?

A.

12 : 11

B.

12 : 7

C.

11 : 7

D.

11 : 12

Correct option is D

Given:

Prakash's investment = ₹77,000

Inaya's investment = ₹84,000

Duration of investment for both = 2 years

Formula Used:

Profit = Investment × Time.

Solution:

Since both invested for the same time (2 years), time can be ignored for ratio comparison.

Profit ratio= Prakash's investment : Inaya's investment

Profit ratio = 77,000 : 84,000

= 77 : 84

777:847=11:12 \frac{77}{7} : \frac{84}{7} = 11 : 12​​

Thus, the correct option is (d) 11 : 12
