Let
x = peacocks
y = deers

2x + 4y = 200
x + y = 72
y = 72 - x
2x + 288 - 4x = 200
x = 44 peacocks
y = 28 deers

Let A’s investment be= 7a
Let B’s investment be= 6a
Let C’s investment be= 5a
Their investment in 2ndyear:= (125% of 7a): (120% of 6a) : (115% of 5a) = 175 : 144 : 115

The number of ways in which the letters of the word RAILINGS can be arranged such that R & S always come together is

Count R & S as only 1 space or letter so that RS or SR can be arranged => 7! x 2!

But in the word RAILINGS, I repeated for 2 times => 7! x 2!/2! = 7! ways = 5040 ways.
