    C.

    1925

    D.

    2025

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    M1 = 189, D1 = 8, W1 = 1215
    M2 = 252, D2 = 10, W2 = ?

    Formula Used:
    M1×D1W1=M2×D2W2\frac{M1 \times D1}{W1} = \frac{M2 \times D2}{W2}​​

    Solution:
    189×81215=252×10W2 W2=252×10×1215189×8 W2=4×10×12153×8=10×12156 W2=10×202.5=2025kg\frac{189 \times 8}{1215} = \frac{252 \times 10}{W2}\\ \ \\W2 = \frac{252 \times 10 \times 1215}{189 \times 8}\\ \ \\W2 = \frac{4 \times 10 \times 1215}{3 \times 8} = \frac{10 \times 1215}{6}\\ \ \\ W2 = 10 \times 202.5 = 2025 kg​​
    Final Answer:
