    The portfolio beta is 1.2

    Explanation:

    Portfolio Beta is the average bet of the all investments in portfolio. This beta is calculated on the basis of weightage of each investment in the portfolio.

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

    Portfolio Beta = (0.69 x 25%) + (1.76 x 20%) + (1.61 x 20%) + (1.02 x 35%)

    Portfolio Beta = 0.1725 + 0.352 + 0.322 + 0.357 = 1.2035
