Answer»

Taking the 2 investments to be 3x and 5x respectively

Total INCOME of Raghu = (3x) x 1.25 + (5x) x 0.9 = 8.25

THEREFORE, Gain% = 0.25/8 x 100 = 3.125 %.

Taking the 2 investments to be 3x and 5x respectively

Total income of Raghu = (3x) x 1.25 + (5x) x 0.9 = 8.25

Therefore, Gain% = 0.25/8 x 100 = 3.125 %.
