    D 50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ratio of the investments of тАШPтАЩ, тАШQтАЩ, and тАШRтАЩ = 24000:28000:32000 = 3:3.5:4 = 6:7:8 (by multiplying each term by 2 to eliminate the decimal). Amount to be divided among them = Rs. {80000 ├Ч (100 - s)/100}. According to the question, {80000 ├Ч (100 - s)/100} ├Ч 7/21 = 20000, Or, 100 тАУ s = 20000 ├Ч 100 ├Ч 21/7 ├Ч 1/80000, Or, 100 тАУ s = 75, Or, s = 25.
