Question

David and Bella started a new company and decided that the net profit will be divided in a 6:7 ratio respectively. At the end of first month, they got a profit of $390. What is the amount that David got after the first month?

Answer 1

$180

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

Net profit earned = $390

And the given ratio is 6:7

So, the amount that David got would be

= Net profit earned × David ratio ÷ total company ratio

where,

Net profit earned = $390

David ratio = 6

Total company ratio is = 6 + 7 = 13

So, the David share is

= $390 × 6 ÷ 13

= $180
