Correct Answer

Explanation


Distance covered in the ratio T: B: C = 4: 3: 2
Fair ratio per km. T: B: C = 1: 2: 4
So, the ratio of total fair T: B: C = 4: 6: 8

Sum of the ratio of total fair = 18
But ATQ, it is 720, so multiply 18 by 40.
Now, multiply each and every ratio with 40.
The total expenditure as fair on a train = 4*40=160
