The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the effective capital contribution of A and B. **A's Investment:** - A invests Rs. 36,000 for 12 months. **B's Investment:** - B invests Rs. 45,000 for the first 4 months. - After 4 months, B withdraws \( \frac{4}{9} \) of his investment. Calculating B's remaining investment after withdrawal: - \( \text{Withdrawal} = \frac{4}{9} \times 45,000 = 20,000 \) - Remaining investment = \( 45,000 - 20,000 = 25,000 \) B's remaining investment of Rs. 25,000 is held for the next 5 months (from month 5 to month 9). After 9 months, B reinvests \( \frac{11}{9} \) of his original investment: - \( \text{Reinvestment} = \frac{11}{9} \times 45,000 = 55,000 \) B's total investment after reinvestment is Rs. 55,000, which he holds for the last 3 months (from month 9 to month 12). ### Step 2: Calculate the total capital contribution in terms of months. **A's Contribution:** - \( 36,000 \times 12 = 432,000 \) **B's Contribution:** - For the first 4 months: \( 45,000 \times 4 = 180,000 \) - For the next 5 months: \( 25,000 \times 5 = 125,000 \) - For the last 3 months: \( 55,000 \times 3 = 165,000 \) Total contribution of B: - \( 180,000 + 125,000 + 165,000 = 470,000 \) ### Step 3: Calculate the ratio of their investments. - A's total investment = 432,000 - B's total investment = 470,000 The ratio of their investments is: - \( \text{Ratio} = A : B = 432,000 : 470,000 \) To simplify: - Divide both by 1,000: - \( 432 : 470 \) ### Step 4: Calculate the total profit and distribute it according to the ratio. Given total profit = Rs. 117,240. Total parts = \( 432 + 470 = 902 \) Now, calculate the value of each part: - Value of each part = \( \frac{117240}{902} \approx 130 \) ### Step 5: Calculate A's and B's share of the profit. **A's Share:** - \( A's \, share = 432 \times 130 = 56160 \) **B's Share:** - \( B's \, share = 470 \times 130 = 61140 \) ### Step 6: Determine who gets more money and by how much. - B gets more money than A. - The difference in their profits = \( 61140 - 56160 = 4980 \) ### Final Conclusion: - B will get more money as a share of the profit, and the difference is Rs. 4,980.
