The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the reasoning laid out in the video transcript. ### Step 1: Understand the given information We know that: - The ratio of investment of Anurag (A) to Ayush (Y) is \(2:3\). - Total profit is Rs. 76,000. - Ayush's share of the profit is Rs. 36,000. ### Step 2: Calculate Anurag's share of the profit Since Ayush's share is Rs. 36,000, we can find Anurag's share by subtracting Ayush's share from the total profit: \[ \text{Anurag's share} = \text{Total profit} - \text{Ayush's share} = 76,000 - 36,000 = 40,000 \] ### Step 3: Set up the profit-sharing ratio The profit-sharing ratio of Anurag to Ayush can be expressed as: \[ \text{Profit of Anurag} : \text{Profit of Ayush} = 40,000 : 36,000 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{40,000}{36,000} = \frac{10}{9} \] ### Step 4: Relate profit to investment and time The profit is proportional to the product of investment and time. Therefore, we can express the ratio of profits in terms of investments and time: \[ \frac{\text{Investment of Anurag} \times \text{Time of Anurag}}{\text{Investment of Ayush} \times \text{Time of Ayush}} = \frac{10}{9} \] Let the investments be: - Anurag's investment = \(2x\) - Ayush's investment = \(3x\) Let: - Time period for Anurag = \(T_1\) - Time period for Ayush = \(T_2\) ### Step 5: Substitute the investments into the ratio Now substituting the investments into the profit ratio: \[ \frac{2x \cdot T_1}{3x \cdot T_2} = \frac{10}{9} \] The \(x\) cancels out: \[ \frac{2T_1}{3T_2} = \frac{10}{9} \] ### Step 6: Cross-multiply to find the relationship between time periods Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 2T_1 \cdot 9 = 10 \cdot 3T_2 \] This simplifies to: \[ 18T_1 = 30T_2 \] ### Step 7: Solve for the ratio of time periods Dividing both sides by 6 gives: \[ 3T_1 = 5T_2 \] Thus, the ratio of \(T_1\) to \(T_2\) is: \[ \frac{T_1}{T_2} = \frac{5}{3} \] ### Conclusion The ratio of the time period for which Anurag and Ayush invested their capital respectively is \(5:3\). ---
