- Following is the pattern of money ( In thosands )with each person from last step

32-32-32-32
in fourth round dinesh doubled the amount hence remaining should have half less
16-16-16-[32+16+16+16]=80
at end of third round amounts will be as follows
16-16-16-80
similarly now in 3rd round prasant doubled,before that amounts are
08-08-[16+8+8+40]-80
at end of 2nd round amounts with them are
08-08-72-40
now in 2nd round manohar doubled the amount,before that amounts are
04-[08+4+36+20]-36-20
at end of 1st round amounts with them are
04-68-36-20
in the 1st round mohit doubled the amounts,before that they have
[04+34+18+10]-34-18-10
hence the initial amounts with them are
66-34-18-10
based on these fixtures we can ans remaining..
