      A ₹64800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B ₹63000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C ₹68400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D ₹61200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E ₹67200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the total amount [K] be Rs. 18x
      So, amount which Ravi was supposed to receive = 18x × (5/18) = Rs. 5x
      Amount which was actually received by Ravi = 18x × (4/18) = Rs. 4x
      ATQ,
      5x - 4x = 1800
      ⇒ x = 1800
      Also,
      K = 18x = 18 × 1800 = Rs. 32400
      Therefore, required value,
      2K = 2 × 32400 = ₹64800
