    Let their investments be Rs. x for 14 months, Rs. y for 8 months and Rs. z for 7 months respectively. Then, 14x : 8y : 7z = 5 : 7 : 8. Now, 14x = 5       98x = 40y       y = 49 x 8y 7 20 And, 14x = 5       112x = 35z       z = 112 x = 16 x. 7z 8 35 5 x : y : z = x : 49 x : 16 x = 20 : 49 : 64. 20 5
