Solution
₹ 50,000
Explanation:
Given:
Capital of Ganga = ₹ 1,02,000
Capital of Jamuna = ₹ 73,000
Saraswati’s share of goodwill = ₹ 25,000
Total capital of theirs = ₹ 2,00,000
Saraswati’s share = `1/5`
Remaining share for Ganga and Jamuna = `1 - 1/5`
= `4/5`
Reciprocal of `4/5 = 5/4`
Total Capital of the firm = `2,00,000 xx 5/4`
= 2,50,000
Saraswati’s capital = `2,50,000 xx 1/5`
= 50,000
