   B.) Rs. 15,000/-
   C.) Rs. 25,000/-
   D.) Rs. 45,000/-

Answer: Option 'D'

A : B : C = x : x+5000 : x+10000 
C's share = (x + 10000)/(3x+15000) = 4/9
Solving the equation, 
x = Rs. 10000/- 
3x + 15000 = Rs. 45000/-

   D.) Data inadequate

Answer: Option 'D'

Given that
1. The difference of age between Raju and Charan = The difference of age between Charan and Tharun.
2. Sum of age of Raju and Tharun is 50 i.e (Raju + Tharun) = 50
Question : Raju - Charan = ?
Solution : 
Raju - Charan  = Charan - Tharun
(Raju + Tharun) = 2Charan 
Now given that, (Raju + Tharun) = 50
So, 50 = 2Charan and therefore Charan = 25.
The question is (Raju - Charan) = ?
Here we know the value (age) of Charan(25), but we don't know the age of Raju.
Therefore, (Raju - Charan) cannot be determined
