• =4550/9100*15300 = 7650 =Net Profit
  7650+850 = 100% therefore Net profit + Reserve
  (7650+850)+1500 = 100% Therefore (Net profit + Reserve) + 15% For Looking business
  So Gross Profit = 10000.
  Less: 15% to A = 1500.
  Less:10% Reserve= 850.
  Net Profit 7650.
  Profit Share: A = 3100 B = 4550
  Total Sum To A = 3100+1500 = 4600 (Profit Share + Reserve)
  Answer =4600.
