Naveen and Kannan jointly started a business. Naveen invested four times as Kannan did and invested his money for double time as compared to Kannan. Kannan earned Rs. 5400. Then the total gain was ?
Answer: B
Naveen's capital-months are \( 4 \times 2 = 8 \) times Kannan's, so the profit splits \( 8 : 1 \).
\[ \text{Kannan's 1 part} = 5400 \]
\[ \text{total} = 9 \times 5400 = \text{Rs. } 48{,}600 \]

If 8 (P’s Capital ) = 10 ( Q’s Capital ) = 12 ( R’s Capital ) , then out of the total profit of Rs 2590 , R will receive ?
Answer: C
\[ 8P = 10Q = 12R \quad\Longrightarrow\quad P : Q : R = \frac{1}{8} : \frac{1}{10} : \frac{1}{12} \]
Multiplying through by 120:
\[ 15 : 12 : 10 \]
\[ \text{total parts} = 37, \qquad \frac{2590}{37} = 70 \]
\[ R = 10 \times 70 = \text{Rs. } 700 \]
The largest capital belongs to P, since the smallest multiplier corresponds to the biggest share.

A & B partner in a business , A contribute 1/4 of the capital for 15 months & B received 2/3 of the profit . For how long B’s money was used
Answer: C
B received 2/3 of the profit
A : B = 1 : 2
Let the total capital = x
Then A’s capital = x/4 B’s capital = x - x/4 = 3x/4
If B’s money was used for a months Then A : B = (x/4)*15 : (3x/4)*a = 1 : 2
15/4 : 3b/4 = 1 : 2
15 : 3b = 1 : 2
5 : b = 1 : 2
a = 5*2 = 10
