Answers :
1) Answer: A
Ratio of the profit share of Gifty and Lifty = (5000 * 8 + 3000 * 4):6000 * 12
= 52000:72000
= 13:18
Profit share of Gifty = 13/31 * 9300 = Rs.3900
Profit share of Lifty = 18/31 * 9300 = Rs.5400
Required sum = 3/4 * 3900 + 1/4 * 5400= Rs.4275
2) Answer: A
Required ratio = 3000 * 15:3200 * 20:2800* 15
= 45:64:42
3) Answer: C
Profit share of Vishnu and Anu = ((x + 500) * 1 + (x + 500 – 1500) * 1):((x – 1000) * 1 + (x – 1000 – 500) * 1)
= (2x – 500):(2x – 2500)
(2x – 500)/(4x – 3000) = 12000/20800
120x – 90000 = 104x – 26000
x = 4000
4) Answer: D
Profit ratio of Arjun, Badri and Keshav = (500 * 1 + 300 * 2): (800 * 1 + 500 * 2): (600 * 2)
= 11: 18: 12
Profit share of Keshav = 2050 * 12/41 = Rs.600
5) Answer: B
Profit ratio of Rani and Vani = (4800 * 9 + 4800 * 3/4 * 15):(3200 * 9 + 3200 * 75/100 * 15)
= 97200:64800
= 3:2
Profit share of Rani = 3/5 * 12000 = 7200
6) Answer: D
Profit ratio of Nisha, Manisha and Oviya = 1/3 * 12:4/5 * 6:5/6 * 12
= 4:24/5:10
= 20:24:50
= 10:12:25
Profit share of Nisha = 10/47 * 14100
= 3000
7) Answer: C
Profit ratio of A, B and C = 4200 * 12:4800 * 12:4000 * 9
= 42*4:48*4:40*3
= 7:8:5
Profit share of B = 8/20 * 7200
= 2880
8) Answer: B
Profit ratio of A and B = (4x * 4 + 2x * 8): (5x * 12)
= 32: 60
= 8: 15
B’s share = 15/23 * 2300 = Rs.1500
9) Answer: B
Profit ratio = (4000 * 3 + 3000 * 9): (5000 * 12): (3000 * 12)
= 39: 60: 36
=13: 20: 12
C’s profit share = 12/45 * 9000 = 2400
10) Answer: D
Investment ratio = 15: 20: 24
Profit ratio = (15 * 7): (20 * 8): (24 * 4)
= 105: 160: 96
Total profit = (525/105) * 361 = 1805

Answers :
11) Answer: B
(x + 2000)/(2x + 8000) = 5500/16500
2x + 8000 = 3x + 6000
x = 2000
12) Answer: A
Profit ratio of A and B = (5000 * 5 + 6000 * 7):(9000 * 5 + 8000 * 7)
= 67000:101000
=67:101
Required Difference = (101 – 67)/168 * 8400
= Rs.1700
13) Answer: B
Profit ratio of A, B and C = (3 * 1): (8 * 2): (1 * 3)
= 3: 16: 3
Total profit share = 22/3 * 1800 = Rs.13200
14) Answer: C
Profit ratio of A, B and C = (4500 * 12): (5000 * 8): (4800 * 8)
= 135: 100: 96
C’s profit share = (96/331) * 16550
= Rs.4800
15) Answer: D
Profit ratio of A, B and C
= (1000 * 4 + 1200 * 8): (1500 * 4 + 1100 * 8): (1200 * 8 + 1100 * 4)
= 13600: 14800: 14000
= 34: 37: 35
C’s profit share = 35/106 * 5300 = Rs.1750
16) Answer: C
Profit ratio of A and B = (4500 * 12): (x * 8)
= 6750: x
6750/(x + 6750) = 9000/17000
9x + 6750 * 9 = 17 * 6750
9x = 54000
x = 6000
17) Answer: E
Profit ratio of A, B and C = 4000 * 12:6000 * 6:4500 * 6
= 16:12:9
C’s profit share = 9/37 * 18500 = Rs.4500
18) Answer: C
Capital ratio of P and Q = 80000 * 36 : 10000 * 24 = 12: 1
Profit gained by P = 12/13 * 39000 = Rs.36000
Profit gained by Q = 1/13 * 39000 = Rs.3000
Required difference = 36000 – 3000 = Rs.33000
19) Answer: D
Remo’s profit/ Saran’s profit = 3/4
=> 3/4= 12/x
=> x = 16 months
20) Answer: A
If investments are in the ratio a: b: c and profits in the ratio p: q: r, then the ratio of time is p/a : q/b: r/c.
Ratio of time = 7/4 : 4/5 : 6/6
= 35: 16: 20
