    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the amount borrowed by Neha from Priya be Rs. ‘x’. So, the amount borrowed by Neha from Rakesh = Rs. (3x/5)

    Money to be repaid to Priya = 12500+(12500×0.06×6) = Rs.17000 Money to be repaid to Rakesh:

    7500+7500×0.45 = Rs.10875 Total amount to be repaid by Neha = 17000+10875 = Rs.27875
