A and B invest in a business in the ratio 3 : If 5% of the total profit goes to charity and A's share is Tk. 855, the total profit is:

A Tk. 1425

B Tk. 1500

C Tk. 1537.50

D Tk. 1576

Correct Answer: Option B

Let the total profit be Tk. 100.

After paying to charity, A's share = Tk. (95 x 3/5) = Tk. 57.

If A's share is Tk. 57, total profit = Tk. 100.

If A's share Tk. 855, total profit = (100/57 x 855) = 1500.
