Amal and Bimal started a business. Amal invested ₹500 for 9 months and Bimal invested some money for 6 months. If they make a profit of ₹69 in a year and Bimal gets profit share of ₹46. The capital of Bimal in the business is

Given, Bimal’s profit share = ₹46


Bimal’s capital = 6x


Ratio of their capital = 500×6 : 6x


= 500 : x




46(500 + x) = 69x


23000 + 46x = 69x


69x-46x = 23000


23x = 23000


X = 1000
