Question

Accepted Answer

Step 1: Calculate profit of Company A in 2005.
Profit % for Company A in 2005 = 60%
Expenditure for Company A in 2005 = 40 crore
Profit = Expenditure × (Profit % / 100) = 40 × (60/100) = 24 crore

Step 2: Calculate profit of Company B in 2005.
Profit % for Company B in 2005 = 48%
Expenditure for Company B in 2005 = 35 crore
Profit = 35 × (48/100) = 16.8 crore

Step 3: Find the difference between profits of Company A and Company B in 2005.
Difference = 24 - 16.8 = 7.2 crore

Therefore, the difference between the profits of Company A and Company B in 2005 is 7.2 crore.
