Solution

The correct option is B Geetika, ₹24,000
Total Investment = ₹48,000

Neetika's investment

=14 of ₹48,000

=14× 48,000

=12,000

Geetika's investment

=34 of ₹48,000

=34× 48,000

= ₹36,000

Hence Geetika's investment is more than Neetika's investment.

Difference = 36,000 - 12,000 = 24,000

Hence, Geetika invested ₹24,000 more than Neetika.
