AI explanation

Let Ram and Shyam invest 4x and 5x. Ram's effective investment for the year is 4x * 8 = 32x. Shyam's effective investment is 5x * 6 + 10x * 6 = 90x. The ratio of their profits is 32 : 90. Ram's share is 24400 * 32 / 122 = Rs. 6400, so y = 6400. Shyam's share is 24400 * 90 / 122 = Rs. 18000, so x = 18000. Therefore, x is greater than y.
