Rs.4200
Rs.3200
Rs.2200
Rs.5200
Explanation:
A's investment:B's investment
15000:25000
15:25
3:5
So there are 3+5 = 8 parts of profit.
Total Profit=9600
A receives 10% of the profit
9600*10/100 = 960
Total Profit-A's 10% profit
9600 - 960 = 8640
So,
A's Share
=8640*3/8
= 3240
Therefore Total Amout Received by A is
= 3240 + 960
= 4200
