Answer:

(3) 5000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money got to A, B, C and D be 9x, 7x, 13x and

5x respectively.

Difference between the shares of C and D: 2400

13x - 5x = 2400

→8x = 2400

{Transposing 8 to RHS}

→x = 2400/8

→x = 300

Share of A: 9x → 9×300 → 2700

Share of B: 7x → 7×300 → 2100

Share of C: 13x → 13×300 → 3900

Share of D: 5x → 5×300 → 1500

Sum of shares of B and C → 2100 + 3900

→ 5000

Hence, answer is (3) 5000.
