Correct Answer: INR 4,000


Solution : The ratio of daily wages of Z1, Z2, and Z3 as W1, W2, and W3 respectively and ratio 
3 : 4 : 4
Total wages Rs. 4960 
The final ratio of their wages 
=  8 × 3 : 10 × 4 : 15 × 4
= 24 : 40 : 60 
= 6 : 10 : 15
Since Z1, Z2, and Z3 received a total of INR 4960
⇒ Share of Zand Z3 = 4960 × $\frac{25}{6 + 10 + 15}$ = 4960 × $\frac{25}{31}$ = 4000
Hence, the correct answer is INR 4,000.
