A Correct answer
Explanation

Total ratio = 3 + 5 + 7 = 15. Sahil's share = (7 / 15) * 6585 = 7 * 439 = 3073.

AI explanation

Let the shares of Rahul, Sunil, and Sahil be 3x, 5x, and 7x, so their total amount is 15x = 6585. Solving for x gives x = 439. Since Sahil receives the largest portion, his share is 7x, which is 7 multiplied by 439. Sahil receives Rs. 3073.
