Answer : Option D
Explanation :
Let the capital of Ramesh (C1) =10
And the capital of Suresh is (C2) = 12
Time period spend by Ramesh (T1) = 8 months
Let, time period spend by Suresh (T2) = x months
The ratio of their profit (p1:p2) is 10: 18
Apply formula: (C1 * T1)/ (C2 * T2) = p1/p2
(10 * 8)/ (12*x) = (10/18)
(80/12x) = (5/9)
20/3x = 5/9
180 = 15x
Hence, x=12 months
