• B. $₹5000$

• D. $₹3500$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$₹4500$

Justification of answer:

Rohan's monthly salary $=$$₹40000$

Salary donated in a charity $=\frac{1}{20}$of monthly salary

$=\frac{1}{20}\times ₹40000$

$=1\times ₹2000$

⇒Salary donated in a charity$=₹2000$

Rachit's monthly salary $=$$₹50000$

Salary donated in a charity $=\frac{1}{20}$of monthly salary

$=\frac{1}{20}\times ₹50000$

$=1\times ₹2500$

⇒Salary donated in a charity$=₹2500$

Total donation in charity $=₹2000$ $+$ $₹2500$

$=₹4500$

Thus, option C is the correct answer
