Correct Answer: INR 3,916
Solution : Given: The ratio of P, Q, R, and S = 8: 6: 3: 2 The amount to be distributed = Rs 6,764 (8x + 6x + 3x + 2x) = Rs 6,764 19x = Rs 6,764 x = 6,764 ÷ 19 x = Rs 356 Thus, the amount each person received – P = 8 × 356; = Rs 2,848 Q = 6 × 356; = Rs 2,136 R = 3 × 356; = Rs 1,068 S = 2 × 356; = Rs 712
So, the total amount of P and R (2,848 + 1,068) = INR 3,916. Hence, the third option is correct.
