Marks: +1, -0

The ratio of investments of Kaushal and Guddu is 11 : 12 and the ratio of their profits is 2 : 3. If Kaushal invested the money for 8 months, find for how much time Guddu invested his money.

3 months
6 months
8 months
11 months

Validate

Solution:

Let Guddu invested his money for x months; then
Ratio of their capitals = (11 × 8) : (12 × x) = 22 : 3x
Now,

22/{3x}=2/ 3

∴ x = {22× 3}/{2 ×3}

= 11 months
