    Solution

    Department A's expenditure = 50% of 1,200,000 = ₹600,000. Average salary in A = 600,000 / 20 = ₹30,000. Department B's expenditure = 30% of 1,200,000 = ₹360,000. Average salary in B = 360,000 / 15 = ₹24,000. Department C's expenditure = 20% of 1,200,000 = ₹240,000. Average salary in C = 240,000 / 10 = ₹24,000. Correct answer: C) ₹30,000 in A, ₹24,000 in B, ₹24,000 in C
