Q.A and B started a business by investing ₹15,000 and ₹45,000 respectively. After 6 months, B received ₹3,030 as profit. What is A’s share of the profit?

A and B's profit ratio = their capital ratio = 15,000 : 45,000 = 1 : 3

Let A's profit be \(x\) rupees \(\therefore x : 3030 = 1 : 3\) Or, \(\cfrac{x}{3030} = \cfrac{1}{3}\) Or, \(x = 3030 \times \cfrac{1}{3}\) Or, \(x = 1010\) \(\therefore\) A's profit is ₹1010.
