Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 1,386

Given,

The ratio of the money distributed among Darshana, Swati and Nivriti is 5 : 6 : 7

Darshna : Swati : Nivriti → 5 : 6 : 7

But Nivriti has Rs. 539 with her.

Then,

7 → 539 

1 → 77

The total sum of money = 5 + 6 + 7 = 18

The total sum of money was distributed = 18 x 77 = 1386

Hence, the correct answer is "1386".
