• A. Rs.$1000$
• B. Rs.$1200$
• C. Rs.$1500$
• D. Rs.$2000$

Answer 1

The correct option is C Rs.$1500$

$\Rightarrow$ $A:B=4:5=8:10$ and $B:C=2:3=10:15$

$\therefore$ $A:B:C=8:10:15$

$\Rightarrow$ If A has $Rs.8$, C has $Rs.15.$

$\Rightarrow$ If A has $Rs.800$

$\Rightarrow$ Then, C has $Rs.(15\times 100)=Rs.1500$
