Rs5,250

- Let's denote Chirag's share as C.

- Sheetal receives 40% less than Chirag, so Sheetal's share is 60% of C: \( \text{Sheetal's share} = 0.6C \).

- Shrinza receives 40% more than Sheetal, so Shrinza's share is \( 1.4 \times 0.6C = 0.84C \).

- The total sum of their shares is: \( C + 0.6C + 0.84C = 2.44C \).

- This total equals Rs15,250, so: \( 2.44C = 15,250 \).

- Solving for C gives: \( C = \frac{15,250}{2.44} \approx 6250 \).

- The correct option is:

- Option 2: Rs6,250
