₹ 11,550 has to be divided between A, B and C such that A gets $\frac{4}{5}$ of what B gets and B gets $\frac{2}{3}$ of what C gets. How much more does C get in comparison to A (in ₹)?

7,200

1,800

1,170

2,450

✅ Correct Option: 4

Let's denote the amounts as

a, b, c

respectively.

\newline

From the relationships:

a=\dfrac{4b}{5} \text { and } b=\dfrac{2c}{3}

Therefore:

a=\dfrac{8c}{15}

Since

a+b+c=11550

\dfrac{8c}{15} +\dfrac{2c}{3} +c=11550

\dfrac{33c}{15}=11550

c=5250

Thus:

\newline

b=3500 \text { and } a=2800

The difference between C and A:

\newline

c-a=5250-2800=2450

Therefore, C gets

₹ 2450

more than

A

Hence, the correct option is Option 4.
