The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the amount paid as tax The company makes a profit of ₹9,00,000, and 20% of this profit is paid as tax. \[ \text{Tax} = 20\% \text{ of } 9,00,000 = \frac{20}{100} \times 9,00,000 = 1,80,000 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the remaining profit after tax Now, we need to find out how much profit remains after paying the tax. \[ \text{Remaining Profit} = \text{Total Profit} - \text{Tax} = 9,00,000 - 1,80,000 = 7,20,000 \] ### Step 3: Understand the ratio in which the remaining profit is divided The remaining profit of ₹7,20,000 is to be divided among partners P, Q, and R in the ratio of \(1 : 1 : \frac{1}{2} : 2\). First, we need to convert this ratio into a simpler form. The ratio can be expressed as: - P = 1 part - Q = 1 part - R = \(\frac{1}{2}\) part - R = 2 parts To simplify, we can multiply each part by 2 to eliminate the fraction: - P = 2 parts - Q = 2 parts - R = 1 part - R = 4 parts Thus, the simplified ratio becomes: \[ P : Q : R = 2 : 2 : 4 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the total parts in the ratio Now, we add up the parts in the ratio: \[ \text{Total Parts} = 2 + 2 + 4 = 8 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the value of each part Next, we find the value of each part by dividing the remaining profit by the total parts. \[ \text{Value of each part} = \frac{\text{Remaining Profit}}{\text{Total Parts}} = \frac{7,20,000}{8} = 90,000 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the shares of P, Q, and R Now we can find the shares of P, Q, and R by multiplying the value of each part by the number of parts each partner has. - Share of P: \[ \text{Share of P} = 2 \times 90,000 = 1,80,000 \] - Share of Q: \[ \text{Share of Q} = 2 \times 90,000 = 1,80,000 \] - Share of R: \[ \text{Share of R} = 4 \times 90,000 = 3,60,000 \] ### Final Shares - Share of P = ₹1,80,000 - Share of Q = ₹1,80,000 - Share of R = ₹3,60,000 ---
