    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
