    Solution

    Interest for Seeta = (8000×15×1)/100 = 1200 Interest for Geeta = (10000×15×1)/100 = 1500 Interest for Reeta = (12000×15×1)/100 = 1800 Total interest of (Seeta + Geeta + Reeta) = (1200+1500+1800) = 4500 Remaining profit = (5925-4500) = 1425 According to the question, (4+5+6) units = 1425 15 units = 1425 1 unit = 95 Share of Reeta in remaining profit = 95 × 6 = 570 Total share of Reeta = 570+1800 = 2370
