    Solution

    Tanya's investment: 1000 [26 + (27+28+29+30+31+32) + (31+30+29+28+27)]
    = 1000 [26 + 177 + 145]
    = 1000 [348] = ₹3,48,000

    Varun's investment: 1000 [26 + (25+24+23+22+21+20) + (21+22+23+24+25)]
    = 1000 [26 + 135 + 115]
    = 1000 [276] = ₹2,76,000

    Arjun's investment: 9 × 52,000 = ₹4,68,000

    Ratio of Profits: 348 : 276 : 468

    Difference in the shares of Arjun and Tanya:
    {(468-348) × 9,10,000}/(348+276+468)
    = (120 × 9,10,000)/1092 = ₹1,00,000
