Nilesh invested 40,000 for 4 years; 50,000 for 3 years;60,000 for 2 years and 70,000 for one year.

Hence, his total investment including time (in thousands) is 40*4+10*3+10*2+10*1 = 160+30+20+10 = 220

Suresh invested 85,000 for 2 years.

Hence, his total investment including time (in thousands) is 85*2 = 170

Total earnings from the workshop is 1,95,000.

Nilesh's share is $195000 * \frac{220}{390} = 110000$
