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

Answer :
Explanation :

This question is designed to see how well you can mediate a situation and handle conflict. You want to come across as someone who can compromise when necessary. An interviewer wants to see that you can not only reach an outcome that is desirable for both sides of a conflict of interest, but also that you can understand where the other person is coming from. Empathy and understanding go a long way in any job and this is a good opportunity to show that you can put yourself in another’s shoes.
