Solution(By Examveda Team)

Let the principal in each case = 100 units According to the question,
              1st part     2nd part     3rd part  
  Principal     →     100x6     100x3     100x2  
  Rate %     →     10     12     15  
  Time     →     6     10     12  
  Interest     →     60x6     120x3     180x2  
Interest Interest is same in each, so equal the interest.
Hence required ratio
= 600 : 300 : 200 of sum
= 6 : 3 : 2
