So if the portfolio is equally invested in all three (one asset and two stocks) so share of each would be 1/3. And to make it equal to the market the product of share and their beta adding all of them should be equal to 1. so equation would be 1/3(0)+1/3(1.86)+1/3(x)=1 which gives x=1.14 so the beta of second stock should be 1.14
