 Hi and how are you all today? The question says, A, B and C are partners in a business. A being a working partner receives 10% of the total profit as salary. The remaining profit is distributed among them in the ratio 2 is to 3 is to 4. If A gets rupees 3 lakh in all, find the shares of B and C. So here in this question we need to find out firstly the total profit of this firm. Let the total profit be X. Now out of this X profit first of all we need to give 10% of the total profit as salary to A. So therefore A's salary share will be 10% of total profit that is 1 upon 10X. So after this giving this salary the remaining profit will be total profit was X. Out of that we have given X by 10 so we are left with 9X by 10. Now this remaining profit is distributed among them in the ratio 2 is to 3 is to 4. Right? But we also know that share in profit that is the remaining part of the profit is 2 upon total sum of the ratio that is coming out to be 9 into the remaining profit and it is equal to X by 5. Now let us first find out the value of X that will be by adding A's salary and his share of profit it should be equal to given to us in the question that in all if he is getting 3 lakh we need to find the share of B and C. So this implies that salary plus his share in the remaining profit is equal to 3 lakh. So this implies X plus 2X upon 10 is equal to 3 lakh. This further implies X will be equal to 3 lakh into 10 divided by this will be 3X or 3 will be taken in the denominator. So we have the total profit as rupees 10 lakh. Now we can easily find out the share of B and C. These share will be equal to 3 out of 9 that is he is getting third part out of the ninth part of 10 lakh. Sorry it is not 10 lakh it is 10 lakh minus 10% of this amount that is given as salary to A that is coming out to be 1 lakh. So it is 3 by 9 into 9 lakh that is equal to rupees 3 lakh and C's share will be 4 by 9 of the remaining profit that is rupees 4 lakh. So the answer to the session is B is earning 3 lakh whereas C is earning 4 lakh in all. So this completes the session hope you understood it well and enjoyed it do have a nice day.
