    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let investments of Arun and Meena be Rs. тАШ7xтАЩ and Rs. тАШ3xтАЩ, respectively.

    So, NehaтАЩs investment = (7x + 3x)/2 = Rs. тАШ5xтАЩ

    Profit share ratio = (7x ├Ч 12) : (3x ├Ч 12) : (5x ├Ч 8) = 84 : 36 : 40

    Simplify тЖТ 21:9:10

    So, required profit for Meena = 500000 ├Ч (9/40) = Rs. 1,12,500
