Solution

To find P's share, we need to calculate the ratio of P's investment to the total investment.

The total investment is the sum of the investments made by P, Q, and R, which is Rs. 28000 + Rs. 35000 + Rs. 14000 = Rs. 77000.

Now, we can calculate P's share by multiplying the total profit by the ratio of P's investment to the total investment:

P's share = (P's investment / Total investment) * Total profit

P's share = (28000 / 77000) * 5225

P's share = 0.3636 * 5225

P's share ≈ Rs. 1899.99

Therefore, P's share is approximately Rs. 1900.
