Simran started a software business by investing Rs. 50,000. After six months, Nanda joined her with a capital of Rs. 80,000. After 3 years, they earned a profit of Rs. 24,500. What was Simran's share in the profit?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Simran : Nanda = (50000 x 36) : (80000 x 30) = 3 : 4.
 Simran's share = Rs. |
 |
24500 x | 3 |  |
= Rs. 10,500. |

If profit is Rs. 24,500, then Simran will take 24,000 x 3/7 = Rs. 10,500.
In this why did you take 24,000 profit, instead of taking 24,500 profit?

Bhagatsingh it is 36 months because 12 months make a year and the year given was 3 years.
So, 3 * 12 months = 36 months.
So, 3 * 12 months = 36 months.

It should be 50000*6+80000*30 because within 6mnth Simran invested that much money.

@Vivekanandh.
One year = 12 months. So, 3 years means 12*3=36.
One year = 12 months. So, 3 years means 12*3=36.
