Correct choice: D

Explanation:

Let us name Ravi, Gagan and Nitin by R, G and N respectively.

I. R : G : N = 2 : 4 : 7.

II. N = 8750..

From I and II, we get:

When N = 7, then G = 4.

When N = 8750, then G =		4	x 8750		= 5000.
		7

Thus, both I and II are needed to get the answer.

Correct answer is (E).
