P and Q start a business. P invests ₹90,000 for 8 months, Q invests ₹1,50,000 for 5 months. What is Q's share of a ₹50,000 profit(approximate)?

Question

Accepted Answer

1. Find time-weighted investments: P = $90{,}000	imes8=720{,}000$, Q = $150{,}000	imes5=750{,}000$.

2. Ratio P:Q = $720{,}000:750{,}000 = 24:25$.

3. Q's share = $\dfrac{25}{24+25}	imes50{,}000 = \dfrac{25}{49}	imes50{,}000$.

4. Calculate: $\dfrac{1{,}250{,}000}{49}\approx25{,}510$. So Q's share ≈ ₹25,510.
