5:3:2 11,00,000 \times \frac{5}{10} = \text{Rs. } 5,50,000 11,00,000 \times \frac{3}{10} = \text{Rs. } 3,30,000 11,00,000 \times \frac{2}{10} = \text{Rs. } 2,20,000 \text{Rs. } 2,50,000 \text{Rs. } 2,20,000 2,50,000 - 2,20,000 = \text{Rs. } 30,000 \text{Rs. } 30,000 2:3 30,000 \times \frac{2}{5} = \text{Rs. } 12,000 $
