Answer : 3. "4360"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 4360 Explanation: Ratio of shares of A,B,C = (24 x 4) : (10 x 6) : (56 x 5)                                     = 96 : 60 : 280.   Let total rent be Rs. x. Then, A's share = Rs.96x436  ∴96x436=960 ⇔x=960×43696=4360   Hence total rent of the field is Rs. 4360.
