50/3 rs at 64 ,
Then 1500rs at = 64/(50/3) * 1500.
=> 64 * 3 * 1500/50.
=>64 * 90,
=>5760.
Then 1500rs at = 64/(50/3) * 1500.
=> 64 * 3 * 1500/50.
=>64 * 90,
=>5760.

6 * 16.66 = 100.
For 1500 = 6 * 15 = 90shares,
1share Rs 64.
Then investment is 90 * 64 = 5760.
For 1500 = 6 * 15 = 90shares,
1share Rs 64.
Then investment is 90 * 64 = 5760.

3*16+2 = 50/3.
50/3 = 16.66.
Rs.64 -- 16.66.
Rs. ? -- 1.
= 3.84.
1500*3.84 = 5760.
50/3 = 16.66.
Rs.64 -- 16.66.
Rs. ? -- 1.
= 3.84.
1500*3.84 = 5760.

Isn't is 50/3 when investing 100?
So the profit when 64 is invested is 64*50/300?
