Suresh started a business with Rs.20,000. Kiran joined him after 4 months with Rs.30,000. After 2 months, Suresh withdrew Rs.5,000 of his capital and 2 more months later, Kiran brought in Rs.20,000 more. What should be the ratio in which they should share their profits at the end of the year?

• Here capital is not the same.
  
  Suresh invested 20000 for initial 6 months and 15000 for the next 6 months. Hence his term of ratio
  =
  (
  20000
  ×
  6
  +
  15000
  ×
  6
  )
  =(20000×6+15000×6)
  
  Kiran invested Rs.30000 for 4 months and Rs.50000 for next 4 months. Hence his term of ratio
  =
  (
  30000
  ×

  +
  50000
  ×

  )
  =(30000×4+50000×4)
  
  Suresh : Kiran
  =
