C and D invested ₹1,40,000 and ₹1,80,000, respectively. C remained for 9 months and D for 8 months. If C's share in the profit is ₹18,900, what is the total profit?

Question

Accepted Answer

1. Find products: C = 140000×9 = 1260000, D = 180000×8 = 1440000. So ratio C:D = 1260000:1440000 = 7:8.
2. C's share = $\frac{7}{7+8}=\frac{7}{15}$ of total profit.
3. Let total profit be $P$. Then $\frac{7}{15}P=18900$, so $P=18900	imes\frac{15}{7}=2700	imes15=40500$.
4. Answer: **₹40,500**.
