Aman : Rakhi : Sagar = (70,000 x 36) : (1,05,000 x 30) : (1,40,000 x 24) = 12 : 15 : 16.

The rate of earning or losing money is not same in cases when only 1 was there, when there were 2 and when there were three.

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