CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. Multiply each fraction by the LCM 12: 12:13:14=6:4:3\frac{1}{2} : \frac{1}{3} : \frac{1}{4} = 6 : 4 : 3.

  2. Total parts = 13, so one part = ₹5,200 ÷ 13 = ₹400.

  3. Priya gets 6 × ₹400 = ₹2,400.

Worth noting

₹1,200 is Ananya's share. Clear the fractions first; never treat 1/2:1/3:1/41/2 : 1/3 : 1/4 as 2:3:42 : 3 : 4.
