Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (B) 580
Since amounts equalise, Arjun's share × (1.1)12 = Kartik's share × (1.1)13, so Kartik's share : Arjun's share = 1:1.1 = 10:11; total 21 parts = 1218, Kartik = 580 (10 parts).

सही उत्तर: (B) 580
चूँकि राशियाँ बराबर होती हैं, अर्जुन का हिस्सा × (1.1)12 = कार्तिक का हिस्सा × (1.1)13, अतः अनुपात 10:11; कुल 21 भाग = 1218, कार्तिक = 580 (10 भाग)।
