Vijay and Ajay started a business initially with ₹ 7600 and ₹ 6800 respectively. If the total loss at the end of a year is ₹ 18000, then what is Ajay’s share in the total loss?1. ₹ 85002. ₹ 84003. ₹ 86004. ₹ 88005. ₹ 8200

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : ₹ 8500

Given:

Investment of Vijay = ₹ 7600

Investment of Ajay = ₹ 6800

Time of investment = 1 year

Total loss = ₹ 18000

Concept used:

Loss = Investment × time

Calculation:

Loss ratio = (7600 × 1) : (6800 × 1)

⇒ Loss ratio = 19 : 17

Total loss = (19 + 17) = 18000

⇒ 36 = 18000

Ajay’s loss = (18000/36) × 17 = 8500

Ajay’s share in total loss is ₹ 8500.
