Explanation

Investment calculations: Seema invests Rs. 9600 for 15 months = 9600×15 = 144000. Imran invests Rs. 8400 for 15 months = 8400×15 = 126000. Zaheer joins after 8 months (invests for 7 months) with 60% of (9600+8400) = Rs. 10800 × 7 = 75600. Total ratio sum = 345600. Zaheer's share = 75600/345600 = 7/32 of total profit. If Zaheer receives Rs. 8400, total profit = 8400 × 32/7 = Rs. 38400.
