          Answer & Explanation
         Answer: B) 1232         
         
Explanation: From the given data,
                       Day      Capacity
A              ->    12          2
B              ->     8           3             2
A + B + C ->     2            12
=> Capacity of C = 12 - 5 = 7
Ratio of capacity of A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 7
Difference of wages of C & B = 4/5 x 1540
= 4 x 308 = Rs. 1232
