Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A and B start a business with investments of $30,000 and $45,000 respectively. If they make a profit of $90,000, how much does A receive?

  • Step 2: Identify B's investment amount, which is $45,000.
  • Step 3: Calculate the total investment by adding A's and B's investments: $30,000 + $45,000 = $75,000.
  • Step 4: Identify the total profit made by the business, which is $90,000.
  • Step 5: Calculate A's share of the profit using the formula: (A's investment / Total investment) * Total profit.
  • Step 6: Substitute the values into the formula: (30000 / 75000) * 90000.
  • Step 7: Simplify the fraction: 30000 / 75000 = 0.4.
  • Step 8: Multiply 0.4 by the total profit: 0.4 * 90000 = $36,000.
  • Step 9: Conclude that A receives $36,000 from the profit.
