4) 24531 : 14117

5) 9177 : 4655

Answer

Option: 4

Explanation: Total flooring area with wood = 1287 + 156 = 1443 sq m
Cost of flooring area with wood = 1443 × 170 = Rs. 245310
Total flooring area with marble = accounts room + record keeping cum-server room + pantry
Cost of flooring area with marble
= 743 × 190 = Rs. 141170
Reqd ratio  = 24531:14117

2) ₹ 178680

3) ₹ 198880

4) ₹ 22876

5) ₹ 188680

Answer

Option: 1
