      A Rs.14000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.19500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.20000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.16200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the amount received by 'Bhanu' be Rs. 10x

      Therefore, amount received by 'Aman' = 10x × (7/10) = Rs. 7x

      Amount received by 'Chirag' = 7x × (4/7) = Rs. 4x

      According to the question,

      10x + 7x + 4x = 42000

      ⇒ 21x = 42000

      ⇒ x = 42000 ÷ 21 = 2000

      Therefore, amount received by 'Bhanu' = 10x = 10 × 2000 = Rs. 20,000
