Answer : [D]
Explanation :
 
Let D's share = Rs. x. Then, C's share = Rs. x.
 
B's share = Rs. (x + 125). A's share = Rs. (x + x + 125) = Rs. (2x + 125)
 
 
  (2x + 125) + (x + 125) + x + x = 750    
 
 
  5x = 500    
 
 
  x = 100    
 
Hence, A's share = 2x + 125 =  Rs. (2 x 100 + 125) = Rs. 325.

Answer : [C]
Explanation :
 
Let the number of benches in the class be x.
 
Then, 6 (x + 1) = 7x - 5
 
 
  x = 11  
 
Hence, number of students in the class = 6 (x + 1) = 6 x 12 = 72.
