Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

3P = 4Q = 7R
Total profit = 3150
3P = 4Q = 7R = k
P=k3,Q=k4,R=k7P:Q:R=k3:k4:k7=28:21:12P = \frac{k}{3}, \quad Q = \frac{k}{4}, \quad R = \frac{k}{7} \\ P : Q : R = \frac{k}{3} : \frac{k}{4} : \frac{k}{7} = 28 : 21 : 12
Total parts = 28 + 21 + 12 = 61
Part of R =(1261)×3150=₹619.67= \left( \frac{12}{61} \right) \times 3150 = \text{₹}619.67
