70000 : 105000 : 140000 divide by 35000 = 2 : 3 : 4.
36:30:24 divide by 6 = 6 : 5 : 4.
Then multiply them 12 : 15 : 16.
36:30:24 divide by 6 = 6 : 5 : 4.
Then multiply them 12 : 15 : 16.

Contribution Ratio: 70000:105000:140000 divided by 35000 then we will get 2:3:4.
Ratio Of Months 36:30:24 divided by 6 then we will get 6:5:4.
Now simple multiply them i.e 5.
2*6 = 12.
3*5 = 15.
4*4 = 16.
Answer is 12:15:16.

@Talha, Prakash, Gokul Nath, Archana.
(70,000 x 36):(1,05,000 x 30):(1,40,000 x 24).
2520000:3150000:3360000.
Cancel common zeros so 252:315:336.
Divide by 21, answer is 12:15:16.
We divide it by 21 to reduce to small numbers.

70000 : 105000 : 140000.
It becomes 2:3:4 and now multiply these by their duration of investment.
And here it becomes 12:15:16.

70k*36:105k*30:140k*24.
This will be equal to 252:315:336.
Divide all three by any one of the three say 252. We get 1/1:5/4:4/3.
Take LCM of 1, 4, 3 which is 12 then 12*1:5/4*12:4/3*12 = 12:15:16.
