x and y invest Rs 21000 and 17500 respectively in a business at the end of the year they make

x investment is Rs.21000/-
y investment is Rs.17500/-
So the ratio of their investments is x/y = 21000/17500 = 42/35
At the end of the year they make profit is Rs.26400/-
So the share of x = (Ratio of x)/(Sum of ratios of x&y)* Profit
= 42/77 * 26400
= 14400/-

profit should be shared in the ratio of investments
that is 21000:17500= 6:5
means if the amount 26400 is divided into (6+5)=11 parts, then 6 parts go to x and 5 parts go to y
so share of x=(26400/11)*6=14400
share of y= 26400-14400= 12000
