Given:

Zoya's friend's profit = Rs. 5,584

Calculation:

Investment ratio of Zoya and her friend = 3:2 (based on amount and time).

Friend’s profit = (2 / 5) × Total profit = 5,584

Total profit = 5,584 × (5 / 2) = 13,960

Zoya's profit = (3 / 5) × 13,960 = 8,376

Profit difference = Zoya's profit - Friend's profit = 8,376 - 5,584 = 2,792

∴ The profit difference between Zoya and her friend is Rs. 2,792.
