    Ratio of rent = 6 : 10 : 12 = 3 : 5 : 6
    ∴ Pandeyji has to pay = Rs. 350 x (6/14)

    Correct Option: D

    Ratio of rent = 6 : 10 : 12 = 3 : 5 : 6
    ∴ Pandeyji has to pay = Rs. 350 x (6/14) = Rs. 150


  1. A is a working and B is a sleeping partner in a business. A puts in Rs. 12,000 and B Rs. 20,000. A receives 10% of the profit for managing, the rest being divided in proportion to their capitals. Out of a total profit of Rs. 9600 the money received by A is ?

    For management A receive = Rs. 960
    Balance Amount = Rs. (9600 - 960) = Rs. 86400
    Ratio of their investment = 12000 : 20000 = 3 : 5

    Correct Option: B

    For management A receive = Rs. 960
    Balance Amount = Rs. (9600 - 960) = Rs. 86400
    Ratio of their investment = 12000 : 20000 = 3 : 5
    ∴ A's share = Rs. 8640 x (3/8) = Rs. 3240
    So, A receive = Rs. (3240 + 960) = Rs. 4200

    Sanjay's investment for 1 months = 15000 x 12 = Rs. 180000
    Komal's investment for 1 months = 15000 x 8 + (15000 - 10000) x 4
    = 120000 + 20000
    = Rs. 140000

    Correct Option: A

    Sanjay's investment for 1 months = 15000 x 12 = Rs. 180000
    Komal's investment for 1 months = 15000 x 8 + (15000 - 10000) x 4
    = 120000 + 20000
    = Rs. 140000

    ∴ Ratio between the investment of Sanjay and Komal
    = 180000 : 140000 = 9 : 7
    ∴ Sanjay's profit = [9/(9 + 7)] x 32000 = Rs. 18000

    Let the total profit be Rs. 100
    After paying to Charity,
    A's share = Rs. 95 x (3/5) = Rs. 57
    If A's share is Rs. 57, then total profit = Rs. 100

    Correct Option: C

    Let the total profit be Rs. 100
    After paying to Charity,
    A's share = Rs. 95 x (3/5) = Rs. 57
    If A's share is Rs. 57, then total profit = Rs. 100
    If A's share is Rs. 855, then total profit = Rs. 855 x (100/51) = Rs. 1500

    ∵ Ratio of shares = (9000 x 12) : (8000 x 7) = 108 : 56 = 27 : 14
    ∴ Sudhakar's share = Rs. 6970 x (14/41)

    Correct Option: C

    ∵ Ratio of shares = (9000 x 12) : (8000 x 7) = 108 : 56 = 27 : 14
    ∴ Sudhakar's share = Rs. 6970 x (14/41) = Rs. 2380
