    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the amounts received by Rina and Meena be Rs. 5x and Rs. 3x, respectively.

    Amount received by Tanu = 5x Ɨ 1.40 = Rs. 7x

    According to question:

    7x ā€“ 3x = 2800

    4x = 2800, x = 700

    So, the total amount distributed by Anil = 5x + 3x + 7x = 15x = 15 Ɨ 700 = Rs. 10,500
