There were three brothers in total namely:-  Amar, Vinod & Chetan.
The number of sacks bought by Vinod = 75. 
Number of sacks bought by Amar = 45
Therefore the total number of sacks = 120.
After equally splitting the sacks each Brother would get 40 sacks. (120/3=40)
According to the question, Chetan has paid Rs 14000 for 40 sacks. Therefore cost of each sack = 14000÷40 = Rs 350.
Now amount paid by Vinod = Rs 350x75 = Rs 26250.
Similarly amount paid by Amar = Rs 350x45 = Rs 15750.
The total cost of wheat = Rs 350 × 120 = Rs 42000.
Since Vinod has paid for 75 sacks so he needs to receive the cost of 35 (75-40=35) sacks = Rs 350x35 = Rs 12250.
Amar should receive the cost of 5 sacks (45-40=5) = Rs 350x5 = Rs 1750.
