1Rs. 192
2Rs. 204
3Rs. 215
4Rs. 238

Answer:- 1

Explanation:-

Solution:

\begin{aligned} Ratio of shares \\ = 8 : 12 : 14 \\ = 4 : 6 : 7 \\ ∴ Kiara's share \\ = Rs . (578 \times \frac{7}{17}) \\ = Rs. 238 \end{aligned}

$\eqalign{ & {\text{Ratio of shares}} \cr & = 8:12:14 \cr & = 4:6:7 \cr & \therefore {\text{Kiara's share}} \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {578 \times \frac{7}{{17}}} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs. }}{\text{238}} \cr}$
