Answer : 4. "Rs. 656.25"
Explanation :

Answer: D) Rs. 656.25 Explanation: Assume Hebah has Rs. M Since 25% more money at Poonam => Money at Poonam = M + (25% of M) => Money at Poonam = M + 0.25M = Rs. 1.25M Money with Navaneet is thrice the money with Poonam, => Money at Navaneet = 3(1.25M) = Rs. 3.75M Now, sum of all Money = (M + 1.25M + 3.75M) = Rs. 6M But given the average of the money is Rs. 350 => 6M/3 = 350 => 2M = 350 => M = 350/2 = Rs. 175 => Amount of money Navaneet has = Rs. 3.75M = 3.75 x 175 = Rs. 656.25.
