Asked by Hoor

Arham opens a retail store with Rs 3500 and after 5 months, Babar joins with Arham as his partner. After a year, the profit is divided in the ratio 2:3. What is Babar' s contribution in the capital?
Answered by Steve
assuming his contribution was proportional to his profit share, and that the 2:3 ratio is Arham:Babar, then if you divide 3500 into 2+3=5 equal shares of 700, then his Babar's input was 3*700 = 2100.

Let B's capital be Rs. x.

Then, 3500 x 12 = 2
7x 3
14x = 126000

x = 9000.
