Solution

The correct option is D Rs 810
Let share of A,B and C be Rs.(3x+5),(4x+10) and (5x+15)
Then Total amount= $3 x + 5 + 4 x + 10 + 5 x + 15 \Rightarrow 12 x + 30$
According to the question
$\Rightarrow 12 x + 30 = 2430$
$\Rightarrow 12 x = 2400$
$\Rightarrow x = 200$
B'share= $4 x + 10 \Rightarrow 4 \times 200 + 10 = 810 R s .$
