Answer: 3:4
Explanation A and B have invested Rs. 6000 and Rs. 8000 respectively, which means their capital ratio is: A : B = 6000 : 8000 = 3 : 4 Since they are sharing the profits at the end of the year, it is assumed that they are sharing the profits in the ratio of their investments. Therefore, the profit-sharing ratio should also be 3:4. So, if the total profit is x, A should get 3x/7 and B should get 4x/7.
Answer: 264
Explanation Let total money be X According to the question, we have the equation: x/6 + x/8 + x/2 + 55 = x Multiply through by 24 to eliminate the fractions, we get: 4x + 3x + 12x + 1320 = 24x 19x + 1230 = 24x Subtracting 19x from both sides. we have: 1320 = 5x Dividing both sides by 5, we get: x = 264
