    The portfolio beta is 1.13

    Explanation:

    Portfolio Beta = (Stock Q beta x Stock Q Weightage) + (Stock R beta x Stock R Weightage) + (Stock S beta x Stock S Weightage) + (Stock T beta x Stock T Weightage)

    Portfolio Beta = (0.79 x 20%) + (1.23 x 30%) + (1.13 x 35%) + (1.36 x 15%)

    Portfolio Beta = 0.158 + 0.369 + 0.396 + 0.204 = 1.127

    Portfolio beta is 1.13
