A 42 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 34 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 63 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

A : B : C = 4 : 5 : 8 A : B : C = 4x : 5x : 8x => A = C – 32 => 4x = 8x – 32 => x = 8 A + B + C = 4x + 5x + 8x = 17x = 17×8 = 136 => 1/4×136 = 34
