First, let's find out how much money remained after covering the expenses: Rs 100 (the total contribution) - Rs 92 (expenses) = Rs 8. Since it was distributed equally among everyone, we can divide Rs 8 by the number of people: Rs 8 / 3 = Rs 2.67 (approximately). However, since each person must receive a whole number of Rupees, one person will get an extra Re 0.67. To find out who that is, we look at their original contributions: Ram contributed Rs 25, Shyam contributed Rs 25, and Gumnaam contributed Rs 25 as well (Gita's contribution was not mentioned but since she lives with Gumnaam, her expenses are likely included in the Rs 92). Since Ram is a widower and has a sister to take care of him, he might be considered more financially constrained. Thus, we assume that Ram gets an extra Re 0.67: Ram receives Rs 25 + Re 0.67 = Rs 25.67 (approximately), Shyam and Gumnaam each receive Rs 24.
