Correct Answer: 40,000
Solution : Investment ratio of P and Q = 150000 : 450000 = 1 : 3 Since investment time is the same for both the person. So, Profit ratio of P and Q = 1 : 3 Now, (1 + 3) units = 200000 $\therefore$ 1 unit = 50000 So P gets a profit of INR 50000. Salary of P = Total received amount – Profit share = 90,000 – 50,000 = INR 40,000 Hence, the correct answer is INR 40,000.
