Two friends P and Q started a business investing in the ratio of 5 : 6. R joined them after six months investing an amount equal to that of Q's. At the end of the year, 20% profit was earned which was equal to Rs. 98,000. What was the amount earned by R?

A. Rs. 1,05,000 B. Rs. 1,75,000
C. Rs. 2,10,000 D. Data inadequate

• ans :A
  (5*12)+(6*12)+(6*6)
  ratio = p5:q6:r3=14
  20%===98000.
  so for 20%===98000*3/14====21,000 for 20% so *ly by 5 for 100%
  so total profit is 21000*5=1,05,000 ans A is correct.

• ans is :c
  explanation:
  let total profit be z
  then 20%of z=98000
  z=(98000*100)/20=49000
  let the capital of p,q,r be 5X,6Xand 6X
  ---> (5x*12)+(6x*12)+(6x*6)=49000*12
  --> 168x=49000*12
  x=(49000*12)/168
  =35000
  R's unit is 6*35000=210000
