Marks: +1, -0

Rohan started a business by investing Rs 12,000. After 6 months, Sohan joined him by investing half of the capital of Rohan. If the share of Rohan in the profit is Rs 7,200, then Sohan’s share in the profit is:

Rs 1,500
Rs 1,800
Rs 1,200
Rs 1,100
Rs 1,450

Validate

Solution:

Ratio of their investments = (18,000 × 12) : (9,000 × 6) = 4 : 1
Now, Ram’s share = Rs 7,200

∴4/5

of x = 7200

x=7200×5/4=9000

Thus, Sohan’s share =

1/5

of x =

1/5×9000=1800
