Q. 1– A and B enter into a partnership with Rs. 50,000 and Rs. 60,000 respectively. C joins them after x months contributing Rs. 70,000 and B leave x months before the end of the year. If they share the profit in the ratio of 20:18:21, then find the value of x.
Q. 2– The cost of 15 articles is equal to the selling price of 12 articles. Find the profit per cent.
Q. 3- sum of two number is 65 . And the difference of their sum is 1/5 . Then find their LCM
1. Ratio of Profits in Partnership:
Here’s how to find the value of x:
Let the total duration of the year be 12 months.
A invested Rs. 50,000 for the entire year, so their investment ratio = 50 * 12.
B invested Rs. 60,000 for (12 – x) months, so their investment ratio = 60 * (12 – x).
C invested Rs. 70,000 for (12 – x) months, so their investment ratio = 70 * (12 – x).
The given profit ratio is 20 : 18 : 21.
Equating the ratios of investment and profit: (50 * 12) : (60 * (12 – x)) : (70 * (12 – x)) = 20 : 18 : 21 Cross-multiplying and simplifying: 600 * (12 – x) = 540 * (12 – x) + 840 * (12 – x) 600 * 12 – 600x = 1380 * 12 – 1380x – 1008x 840x = 8400 x = 10
Therefore, B leaves x months before the end of the year, which is 10 months.
2. Profit Percentage:
The cost of 15 articles is equal to the selling price of 12 articles, which means there is a gain of 3 articles for every 12 sold.
Profit percentage can be calculated using the formula:
Profit% = (Gain/CP) * 100
Gain/CP = 3/(Cost of 12 articles) = 1/4
Therefore, Profit% = (1/4) * 100 = 25%.
So, the profit per cent is 25%.
3. LCM of Numbers with Difference in Ratio:
We are given that the sum of two numbers is 65 and the difference in their ratio is 1/5. This information is insufficient to determine the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of the two numbers.
While we have their sum, we lack information about their individual values or their specific ratio. Knowing the ratio of their difference (1/5) doesn’t necessarily lead to their values or LCM.
For calculating the LCM, we need the actual values of the two numbers or their relative factors. Without this information, it’s impossible to determine the LCM in this case.
