If an investor invest N450,000 in a certain organization ...

If an investor invest N450,000 in a certain organization in order to yield X as a return of N25,000. Find the return on an investment of N700,000 by Y in the same organization.

A.

N14,950.50K

B.

N25,150.30K

C.

N15,000.00K

D.

N38,888.90K

Correct answer is D

[Return ÷ Investment] as a ratio ;

i.e The Ratio is Return : Investmen

[(Return1÷ Investment1 ) = (Return2÷ Investment2)]

R1 = N 25000

R2 =?

I1 = N450,000,

I1 = N 700000

(25000 ÷ 450000) = (R2 ÷ 700000)

R2 = [(25000 × 700000 ) ÷ 450000]

= N38,888.90K

∴ The return on a investment of Y = N38888.90K
