B) Rs 4,350/-

C) Rs 4,150/-

D) Rs 3,700/-

E) Rs 3,650/-

Correct Answer:
A) Rs 3,850/-

Description for Correct answer:
A : B = 7 : 9

B : C = 18 : 11

A : B : C = \( 7 \times 18 : 9 \times 18 : 9 \times 11 \)

= 126 : 162 : 99

= 14 : 18 : 11

C's share of profit = \( \frac{11}{43} \times 15050 \)

= Rs.3,850/-
