I am getting (d)..ie none of the foregoing..
b=c/2-k becoz bananas are less than half the chikoos, similarly
m=c/3+p
m=3b/4-x=3c/8-3k/4-x
Now c , m and b have to be integer. c must be of the form 24n.So c must be=24
Now m+b=18 becoz c+m+b=42
Now b must be 4,8,12,or 16.But as b is less than half of c it has to be less than 12 ie b=4 resulting into m=14 which is not possible becoz as indicated from third eqauation m<b
So the given scenario is not possible
hope i make some sense..
