    A 25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 45 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 65 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 75 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let marbles with Amit = x, Rahul = y, Kabir = zThen:

    x + y = z + 14 тАжтАжтАж(1)

    y + z = x + 4 тАжтАжтАж(2)

    x + z = 36 тАжтАжтАж(3)

    Add (1), (2), and (3):

    тЖТ 2(x + y + z) = x + z + 14 + 4 + 36 = x + z + 54

    тЖТ x + z = 36

    тЖТ 2(x + y + z) = 36 + 54 = 90

    тЖТ x + y + z = 45
