Solution -
Given,
Nehru Ji had 'n' chocolates.
He distributed them among 4 children in the ratio 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/5 : 1/8.
Take,
L.C.M of 2,3,5,8 = 120
Therefore,
The ratio = 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/5 : 1/8
Now,
= 1/2(120)
= 60
= 1/3(120)
= 40
= 1/5(120)
= 24
= 1/8(120)
= 15
Therefore,
The minimum number of chocolates = 60 + 40 + 24 + 15
= 139
Hence,
The correct option is (a) 139.
