Solution

Investments ratio of Naveen and Kanan is $4 : 1$
Time period ratio is $2 : 1$
Gain ratio of Naveen and Kannan:
$\Rightarrow 4 \times 2 : 1 \times 1$
$\Rightarrow 8 : 1$
Kannan got Rs. $5400$
Let total gain be $x$
Thus,
$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{9} \times x = 5400$
$\Rightarrow x = 54000 \times 9$
$\Rightarrow x = 48600$ Rs.

The total gain = Rs $48600$
