A and B invest in a business in the ratio 3 : 2. If 5% of the total profit goes to charity and As share is Rs. 855, the total profit is:
Rs. 1425
Rs. 1500
Rs. 1537.50
Rs. 1576
Explanation:
Let the total profit be Rs. 100.
After paying to charity, As share = Rs.$ \left(95\times\dfrac{3}{5} \right) $= Rs. 57.
If As share is Rs. 57, total profit = Rs. 100.
If As share Rs. 855, total profit =$ \left(\dfrac{100}{57} \times 855\right) $= 1500.
