Suppose
1oo people complete the task =300days
then 1 people can complete this task=300/100
same as
50/3--- 64
1-------(64/(50/3))
1oo people complete the task =300days
then 1 people can complete this task=300/100
same as
50/3--- 64
1-------(64/(50/3))

Do these statements make sense.

@pawan, @manikandan
1 x 50/3 = 64
Then
1 = 64 x 3/50
1 x 50/3 = 64
Then
1 = 64 x 3/50

See,
50/3 he is earning when he is investing Rs. 64.
So for earning of Rs.1 he has to invest Rs. 64/(50/3).
So for earning of Rs.1500 he has to invest Rs. 64/(50/3)*1500.
=64*(3/50)*1500
=64*3*1500/50
=Rs. 5760.
