    A 500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 315 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    (4800 + x) × 1.08 × 1.18 × 1.25 = 8151.36

    Or, 4800 + x = (8151.36 / 1.593)

    So, x = 5115 - 4800 = 315

    Therefore, the value of 'x' is 315
