Srikanth and Vividh started a business investing amounts of Rs.185000 and Rs. 225000, respectively. If Vividh's share in the profit earned by them is Rs. 9000, what is the total profit earned by them together.

A) Rs. 17400
B) Rs.16400
C) Rs.16800
D) Rs.17800

Correct Answer:


B) Rs.16400

Description for Correct answer:

As we know ratio of profits = Ratio of investments

Srikant's share = Vividh's share
= 185000 : 225000 = 37 : 45

Let Srikant's share = 37x
Vividh's share = 45x

According to the question
45x = 9000

X = 9000/45 = 200

Total profit = 37x + 45x = 82x
= 82 X 200 = Rs.16400
