IBPS SO Prelims Exam Model Paper 3

Given:
P ∶ Q ∶ R = 9 ∶ 7 ∶ 8
Total Profit = Rs. 20,200
Calculation:
According to the question, we get
The share of P, Q, and R = (9 × 7 + 18 × 5) ∶ (7 × 7 + 4 × 5) ∶ (8 × 7 + 5 × 5)
⇒ Share of P, Q, and R = 153 ∶ 69 ∶ 81
⇒ Share of P, Q, and R = 51 ∶ 23 ∶ 27
R's share = (

27

101

) × 20,200
⇒ R's share = Rs. 5400
∴ The share of R from profit is Rs. 5400.
