The total sum involved is Rs. 2400

Given -

  • P get Rs. 95 more than 1/6th of the sum
  • Q get Rs. 240 less than 5/8th of the sum
  • R gets Rs. 645

Let the initial amount be x

So ,

P = x/6 + 95

Q = 5x/8 - 240

Now R' share is,

= x - x/6 -95 - 5x/8 + 240

= 5x/24 + 145

According to the question

5x/24 + 145 = 645

By solving the above equation we get

x = 2400

Hence the total sum involved is Rs. 2400
