Answer» ? The investments in second quarter was changed and this was in the ratio 2 : 3 : 1; Suppose the investment in 2nd quarter were RS. 2z, Rs. 3Z and Rs. z; ∴ The investment in last quarter will also be changed and would be Rs. 4Z, Rs. 6z and Rs. 2z; And the investment in 3rd quarter would be Rs. 3y, Rs. 2y and Rs. 3y; ∴ Total investment of all three for the whole year = (1200 + 2z + 3y + 4z) + (2000 + 3z + 2y + 6z) + (2400 + z + 3y + 2z) ⇒ 5600 + 18z + 8y ? The investment of Q = 2y = Rs. 600 ⇒ y = 300 ∴ Putting y = 300; ⇒ 5600 + 18z + 2400 ⇒ 8000 + 18z ? The total investment of P, Q and R was Rs. 19160; ∴ 8000 + 18z = 19160 ⇒ 18z = 11160 ⇒ z = 620 ∴ Total investment of all three in the last quarter = (4 + 6 + 2) × 620 = Rs. 7440 |
