Ram sold 10 acres of land to Mani and Dinesh who paid him the total amount in the ratio of 2 : 3. Mani invested a further Rs.3 lakh in the land for the purpose of planting coconut and lemon trees in the ratio of 4 : 1. These trees were planted on equal areas of land. There were a total of 200 lemon trees. The sale price of one coconut was Rs.10 in 2019. The crop took 7 years to mature and when the crop was reaped in 2019, the total revenue generated was 50% of the total initial amount put in by Mani and Dinesh together. The revenue generated from the coconut and lemon trees was in the ratio of 5 : 4 and it was shared equally by Mani and Dinesh as the initial amount spent by them was equal.
