Let the total amount be 3x + 5x + 6x
Amount by Rakesh = 5x = 75,000 Rs
5x = 75,000
x = 15,000
Total amount = 3*15,000 + 75,000 + 6*15,000
= 45,000 + 75,000 + 90,000
= 210,000 Rs
= Rs 2.1 Lakh
Amount by Rakesh = 5x = 75,000 Rs
5x = 75,000
x = 15,000
Total amount = 3*15,000 + 75,000 + 6*15,000
= 45,000 + 75,000 + 90,000
= 210,000 Rs
= Rs 2.1 Lakh

Rs 2.1 lakh
Let the total inverstment be x
∴ x/(3 + 5 + 6) x 5 = 75000
or x/14 = 75000/5
∴ x = 14 x 15000 = 210000
Let the total inverstment be x
∴ x/(3 + 5 + 6) x 5 = 75000
or x/14 = 75000/5
∴ x = 14 x 15000 = 210000
