Mansi and Stuti started a business together. Mansi invested ₹2,20,000 and Stuti invested ₹2,50,000. If Stuti's share of profit earned by them is ₹8500, what is the total profit earned? 1. ₹160002. ₹159803. ₹157804. ₹155005. None of the above.

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : ₹15980

Given:

(i) Mansi invested = Rs.2,20,000

(ii) Stuti invested = Rs.2,50,000

(iii) Stuti’s profit = Rs.8500

Calculations

Ratio of profits : ratio of investments

Mansi’s share : Stuti’s share

= 220000 : 250000 = 22 : 25

Let Mansi’s share be 22x

Let Stuti’s share be 25x

According to the question,

25x = 8500

⇒ x = 340

Total profit earned = (22x + 25x) = 47x

= 47 × 340

= 15980

 Total profit earned by both is Rs.15980.
