1. Three business partners Q, R, and S, agree to divide their total profit for a certain year in the ratios 2 : 5 : 8, respectively. If Q's share was Tk. 4000, what was the total profit of the business partners for the year?

  • A. Tk. 26,000
  • B. Tk. 26,000
  • C. Tk. 26,000
  • D. Tk. 26,000

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Individual profit of Q,R and S are 2x, 5x, 8x

Sum of total profit = 2x + 5x + 8x = 15x 

now,      2x = 4000tk

              x = 4000/2 = 2000tk

          15x = (2000*15) tk

                 = 30,000tk (Ans.)
