Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Rs. 3600

Given:

Investment of Pawan = Rs 18,000

Investment of Raman = Rs 25,200

Profit earned by both at the end of one year = Rs 8,640

Concept used:

Investment × time of investment ≡ Profit

Calculation:

Ratio of Profit of Pawan and Raman = 18,000 × 1 ∶ 25,200 ∶ 1 = 5 ∶ 7

Let the profit received by Pawan and Raman be 5x and 7x respectively.

Total profit, 8640 = 5x + 7x

⇒ 12x = 8640

Or, x = 720

Share of Pawan, 5x = Rs 3,600

Share of Pawan in the profit is Rs 3,600.
