Given:

A sum of money is distributed among four people A, B, C, and D in the ratio 4 : 7 : 9 : 3.

B gets Rs. 600 more than A.

Calculation:

Let the shares of A, B, C, and D be 4x, 7x, 9x, and 3x respectively.

According to the problem, B - A = 600

B - A = 600

7x - 4x = 600

⇒ 3x = 600

⇒ x = 600 / 3

⇒ x = 200

Now, the shares of C and D will be:

C = 9x = 9 × 200 = 1800

D = 3x = 3 × 200 = 600

Difference between C and D:

⇒ 1800 - 600 = 1200

The correct answer is option 2: Rs. 1200
