Dear Student, In 2006, Profit % of B = 40 In 2010 Profit % of A = 40 Total Income of Company A in 2010 and Company B in 2006 = 133 lakh You must know the formula: Profit % = [(Income-Expenditure) / Expenditure] *100 40 = [(133-x)/x]*100 40x/100 =133-x 40x/100 + x = 133 140x/100 = 133 x=(133*100)/140 x=95 lakhs Keep Learning with Us Best Wishes Team Toprankers
