Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:

Let Gopal's share be G, Abhishek's be A, Sadiq's be S and Pawan's be P.

Given that G+3=A+A3=80S100=P4

You get

G = P – 7. (1)

A=34 (P4)  . (2)

S=54 (P4)  …. (3)

Also given that G + A + P + S = 80…. (4)

Substituting the values from (1), (2) and (3) in (4), we get

  [P+3P4+5P4+P]735=80 or P = 23.75

  a + 5 b  is collinear with c  

  a + 5 b = c           …(1)

b + 6 c is collinear with a  

⇒   b + 6 c = μ a               …(2)

From (1) and (2)

  b + 6 c = μ ( λ c 5 b )          

-> ( 1 + 5 μ ) b + ( 6 λ μ ) c = 0
