    Manishanker and Hariharan started a business in vesting amounts in the ratio of 2 : 3 respectively. If Manishanker had invested an additional amount of Rs. 10000, the ratio of Manishanker's investment to Hariharan's investment would have been 3 : 2. What was the amount invested by Manishanker?

    A)  Rs. 8000

    B)                     Rs. 12000

    C)  Rs. 18000                    

    D)  Rs. 20000

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Ratio of their initial investment \[=\frac{2}{3}\] Then,    \[\frac{2x+10000}{3x}=\frac{3}{2}\]or \[4x+20000=9x\] \[\therefore \]  Amount invested by Manishanker \[=2x=\text{Rs}\text{.}\,\,8000\]
