X and Y invest ₹60,000 and ₹80,000 respectively in a business. After 1 year, the total profit is distributed including simple interest at 8% per annum on the capital of each partner. If the total profit including interest is ₹22,400, what is X's share of the profit?

Question

Accepted Answer

1. **Compute interest**: X gets $60000	imes0.08=4800$ and Y gets $80000	imes0.08=6400$. Total interest = $4800+6400=11200$.  
2. **Business profit** = total 22400 − interest 11200 = $11200$.  
3. **Share ratio** = $60000:80000=3:4$. X's share of business profit = $11200	imes\frac{3}{7}=4800$.  
4. **Total for X** = interest $4800$ + profit share $4800$ = **₹9600**.
