A. Rs. 3500
B. Rs. 3900
C. Rs. 4300
D. Rs. 4500
Right Answer is: B
SOLUTION
Let total investment = LCM (4,5) = 20
Investment of X = unit
Investment of Y= unit
Investment of Z= 20 – (5+4) = 11 unit
Investment ratio of X, Y & Z = 5 : 4 : 11
Ratio of time duration of X, Y and Z =
Profit earned (Investment
Time)
Ratio of Profit earned by X, Y and Z = = 5:8:44
Hence total profit = 57 unit
⇒ 57 unit = 5700
⇒ 1 unit = 100
Difference between profit of X & Z = 44 – 5 = 39 unit = 39×100 = Rs. 3900
