    D.

    38 : 29

    Correct option is A

    Given:
    Table showing monthly expenditure of five people on education, rent, food, conveyance, and electricity.
    We need to find the ratio of the amount spent by Rohan and Teena on food and education to the amount spent by Praveen and Seema on rent and conveyance.
    Concept Used:
    Sum the amounts spent by Rohan and Teena on food and education.
    Sum the amounts spent by Praveen and Seema on rent and conveyance.
    Find the ratio of these two sums.
    Solution:
    Rohan's expenditure on food = ₹4,500
    Rohan's expenditure on education = ₹6,400
    Teena's expenditure on food = ₹5,500
    Teena's expenditure on education = ₹7,000
    Total = ₹4,500 + ₹6,400 + ₹5,500 + ₹7,000 = ₹23,400
    Praveen's expenditure on rent = ₹3,800
    Praveen's expenditure on conveyance = ₹3,500
    Seema's expenditure on rent = ₹4,200
    Seema's expenditure on conveyance = ₹4,400

    Total = ₹3,800 + ₹3,500 + ₹4,200 + ₹4,400 = ₹15,900

    Ratio=23,40015,900\text{Ratio} = \frac{23,400}{15,900}=7853\frac{78}{53}
    Option (A) is right.
