A and B are two partners and they have invested Rs. 54,000 and Rs. 90,000 in business. After one year A received Rs 1800 as his share of profit out of total profit of Rs. 3600 including his certain commission on total profit since he is a working partner and rest profit is received by B. what is the commission of A as a percentage of the total profit?

- 20%
- 10%
- 5%
- 25%
Correct Option: A
Ratio of profit of A : B (excluding commission of A) = 3 : 5 ( 54 : 90)
Now the share of profit of B = 3600 - 1800 = Rs. 1800
So the share of profit A (excluding commission ) = Rs. 1080
So the commission of A = 1800 - 1080 = 720
Therefore the required percentage = (720 / 3600) x 100 = 20%
