Answer» Rs. 24,000 Rs. 36,000 Rs, 18,000 Rs. 48,000 Solution :Let the amount INVESTED by Gopal and Ram be 2x and 3x respectively. Gopal further invested Rs.2 lakh. Acc, to question `(2x+2)=3x or x=2` lakh. Hence, initial amount paid by gopal and Ram to Krishna is 4 lakh and 6 lakh respectively. Hence, TOTAL money invested by them together `=(6+6)12` lakh. The total revenue generated `=12xx25%=3` lakh. ALSO The ratio of revenue from COCONUT and lemon treees are in the rati `3:2` Hence, revenue from coconut `=Rs. 1,80,000` and revenue from lomons `=Rs. 1,12,000`, so total output of coconut `=(1,80,000)/(5)=Rs. 36,000`
