Problems on Partnership:

1. A, B and C rent a pasture. A puts 5 oxen for 3 months, B puts 15 oxen for 6 months and C puts 25 oxen for 9 months for grazing. If the rent of the pasture is 440, how much must B pay as his share of the rent?

Solution:
                 5*3 : 15*6 : 25*9
                 1: 6: 15

                 1+ 6+ 15 = 22

                 B’s share = (440*6)/22
                                  = 120.

2. In a business, A and B invested amounts in the ratio 2:3, whereas the ratio between amounts invested by A and C was 1:2. If 45,000 was their profit, how much amount did B receive?

Solution:
                 A: B: C = 2: 3: 4

                 2+3+4 = 9

                 B’s share = (45000*3)/9
                                  = 15,000.
