Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Alphonso: 1,000 kg × ₹80 = ₹80,000.

  2. Dasheri: 1,500 kg × ₹30 = ₹45,000. Total: ₹1,25,000.

  3. Alphonso's share: 80,0001,25,000×100=64%\frac{80{,}000}{1{,}25{,}000} \times 100 = 64\%.

Worth noting

40% is the Alphonso share by weight; the prices are different, so income shares differ. 72.7% compares only the two prices and ignores how much of each was sold. 177.8% compares Alphonso income with Dasheri income instead of with the total.
