    A 1833.33 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1176.47 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1714.29 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1565.55 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    ATQ,

    0.18 × 4 × x = 1.4x – 800

    ⇒ 0.72x = 1.4x – 800

    ⇒ –0.68x = –800

    ⇒ x = 800 ÷ 0.68 = 1176.47
