AnswerD.

Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
A : C = 2 : 3 or 2x : 3xB : D = 1 : 2 or y : 2y
According to the question,
2x - 140 = y......(i)
3x- 80 = 2y.......(ii)
multiply equation (i) by 2 and solved
Now put the value of x in equation .... (i)
2 × 200 - 140 = y
A's salary = 2x = 200 × 2 = Rs. 400
B's salary = y = 260 × 1 = Rs. 260
C's salary = 2x = 3 × 200 = Rs. 600
D's salary = 2y = 2 × 260 = Rs. 520
