A and B contribute 140000 and 180000 respectively in a business partnership of the profit A receive 20% as a manager and the rest is shared in the ratio of the capital what is the ratio of A total share of the profit to B
\n" ); document.write( "

Capital invested by A and B: $140,000 and $180,000, respectively\r\n" );
document.write( "Capital ratio: A:B = 140,000:180,000 = 14:18 = 7:9\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore, A's and B's shares of profit are , respectively\r\n" );
document.write( "After A receives 20%, or .2 of profit for his managerial role, 80% (.8) of profit remains\r\n" );
document.write( "Of this remaining 80% or .8, A receives: \r\n" );
document.write( "Of this remaining 80% or .8, B receives: \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Total A receives: 29% + 35% = 55% of profit.\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore, ratio of A's share of profit to B's share of profit is 55:45, or 11:9

\n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
