Arjun’s investment was Rs. 600 more than that of Beena while Beena's investment was Rs. 300 less than Chikku. At the end of one year, the business generated Rs. 864 profit which was distributed in the ratio of the investment of the three partners. Arjun invested 25 % of his profit in a saving scheme that assures a 15% return as interest in one year. What was the interest earned by Arjun from the saving scheme in one year?

Calculation:

Let the investment of Chikku be x.

Investment of Beena = x – 300

Investment of Arjun = x – 300 + 600

Total investment = 7200

⇒ x + x – 300 + x – 300 + 600 = 7200

⇒ 3x = 7200

⇒ x = 2400

Investment of Chikku = Rs. 2400.

Investment of Beena = Rs. 2100

Investment of Arjun = Rs. 2700

∴ Ratio of Chikku : Beena : Arjun = 8 : 7 : 9

∴ Arjun’s Share = 864 × 9/24

⇒ Rs. 324

Investment of Arjun in saving scheme = 25% of 324

⇒ Rs. 81

Interest earned by Arjun = 81 × 15 × 1/100

⇒ Rs. 12.15

The interest earned by Arjun from the saving scheme in one year is Rs. 12.15.
