CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. Working the same number of days, work done is in the ratio of rates: 110:115=3:2\frac{1}{10} : \frac{1}{15} = 3 : 2.

  2. Anil's share = 35×4500=₹2,700\frac{3}{5} \times 4500 = ₹2{,}700.

Worth noting

Share by work, i.e. by efficiency, not by days. ₹1,800 is Bharti's share; splitting equally gives ₹2,250.
