Explanation

Monthly income ratio is 54 : 21 : 59. Reema's annual income = Rs. 5,04,000, so her monthly income = 5,04,000 ÷ 12 = Rs. 42,000. If 21 parts = Rs. 42,000, then 1 part = Rs. 2,000. Saloni (54 parts) = 54 × 2,000 = Rs. 1,08,000 monthly, annual = Rs. 12,96,000. Kalyani (59 parts) = 59 × 2,000 = Rs. 1,18,000 monthly, annual = Rs. 14,16,000. Sum = Rs. 12,96,000 + Rs. 14,16,000 = Rs. 27,12,000.
