Subhash starts a business by investing Rs. 25000. 6 months later Aditya joins him by investing Rs. 15000. After another 6 months Aditya invests an additional amount of Rs. 15000. At the end of 3 years they earn a profit of Rs. 247000. What is Aditya’s share in the profit ?

a) Rs. 105000
b) Rs. 111500
c) Rs. 123000
d) Rs. 117000

Answer: d
Explanation:
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Subhas}}:{\text{Aditya}} = \left( {25000 \times 36} \right):\left( {15000 \times 6 + 30000 \times 24} \right) \cr & = 900000:810000 \cr & = 10:9 \cr & {\text{Aditya’s share}} = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {247000 \times \frac{9}{{19}}} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.117000}} \cr} $$
