Solution

Total amount = Rs 44352

M's share= $$\frac{3}{8}\times44352$$ = Rs 16632

Remaining amount = 44352 - 16632 = Rs 27720

N's Share = $$\frac{1}{6}\times27720$$ = Rs 4620

Remaining amount = 27720 - 4620 = Rs 23100

Ratio in which the remaining amount is divided between O: P = 3:2

P's share = $$\frac{2}{5}\times23100$$ = Rs 9240
