Answer : 2. "13 years"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 13 years Explanation: Given R + S + M + D = 76 => R+7 : S+7 : M+7 : D+7 = 7:6:5:8 => Let the ratio = x => M+7 = 5x => M = 5x-7 => R = 7x-7 => S = 6x-7 => D = 8x-7 => R + S + M + D = 76 => 7x-7 + 6x-7 + 5x-7 + 8x-7 = 76 => 26x - 28 = 76 => 26x = 104 => x = 4 => Mahesh's present age = 5x-7 = 20 - 7 = 13 years.

Answer : 1. "Ram - Rs. 800, Raj - Rs. 900, Rakesh - Rs. 840"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Ram - Rs. 800, Raj - Rs. 900, Rakesh - Rs. 840 Explanation: Initial investment of Ram = Rs.2500.After 2 months he withdraw Rs.1250 from his capital.Therefore, we have, Ram invested Rs.2500 for 2 months and Rs.(2500-1250=) 1250 for 4 months. Raj invested Rs. 2250 for 3 months and Rs.(2250-750=) 1500 for 3 months. And, Rakesh invested Rs.3500 for 3 months; Their investing ratio:Ram:Raj:Rakesh = (2500x2 + 1250x4):(2250x3 + 1500x3):(3500x3)= (10,000):(11,250):(10,500) = 1000:1125:1050 = 40:45:42 Total profit for 6 months = Rs.2540Therefore, Ram's share = Rs.(2540 x 40/(40+45+42)) = Rs.(2540 x 40/127) = Rs.800Raj's share = Rs.(2540 x 45/127) = Rs.900Rakesh's share = Rs.(2540 x 42/127) = Rs.840
