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.
