The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will break down the investments of Uday and Amir, calculate their effective capital contributions over time, and then use the profit ratio to find the value of T. ### Step 1: Calculate Uday's Investment for the First Six Months Uday invested Rs. 1200 for the first six months. - **Investment**: Rs. 1200 - **Time**: 6 months ### Step 2: Calculate Uday's Remaining Investment After Withdrawal Uday withdrew 1/4 of his capital after six months. - **Withdrawal Amount**: \[ \text{Withdrawal} = \frac{1}{4} \times 1200 = 300 \] - **Remaining Capital**: \[ \text{Remaining Capital} = 1200 - 300 = 900 \] ### Step 3: Calculate Uday's Investment for the Next T Months Uday invested the remaining Rs. 900 for T months. - **Investment**: Rs. 900 - **Time**: T months ### Step 4: Calculate Amir's Investment Amir invested Rs. 1600 for the whole year (12 months). - **Investment**: Rs. 1600 - **Time**: 12 months ### Step 5: Calculate Uday's Effective Capital Contribution Uday's total effective capital contribution can be calculated as: - For the first 6 months: \[ \text{Contribution} = 1200 \times 6 = 7200 \] - For the next T months: \[ \text{Contribution} = 900 \times T \] - **Total Contribution by Uday**: \[ \text{Total Contribution} = 7200 + 900T \] ### Step 6: Calculate Amir's Effective Capital Contribution Amir's total effective capital contribution is: - For the whole year: \[ \text{Contribution} = 1600 \times 12 = 19200 \] ### Step 7: Set Up the Profit Ratio Equation According to the problem, the profit ratio of Uday and Amir is given as 9:16. Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ \frac{7200 + 900T}{19200} = \frac{9}{16} \] ### Step 8: Cross Multiply to Solve for T Cross multiplying gives us: \[ 16(7200 + 900T) = 9 \times 19200 \] Calculating the right side: \[ 9 \times 19200 = 172800 \] Now, substituting back into the equation: \[ 16(7200 + 900T) = 172800 \] ### Step 9: Distribute and Simplify Distributing the left side: \[ 115200 + 14400T = 172800 \] ### Step 10: Isolate the T Term Subtract 115200 from both sides: \[ 14400T = 172800 - 115200 \] \[ 14400T = 57600 \] ### Step 11: Solve for T Now, divide both sides by 14400: \[ T = \frac{57600}{14400} = 4 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of T is **4 months**. ---
