Solution

The correct option is C ₹30
Given: Total amount = ₹60
Ratio = 1:3
We have to divide ₹60 into two parts in the ratio 1:3.
Here, we will have divide the total amount into 1+3 = 4 parts. Out of which one part will be the first part and the rest of the three will be the second part.
First part is 14×60=15
Second part is 34×60=45
Difference between first and second part = 45 - 15 =30
The required difference is ₹ 30.
