Step 1: Recall the  Formula

Step 2: Identify Given Data

- Distance moved by spot A = 5 cm (from baseline)
- Distance moved by spot B = 7 cm (from baseline)
- Solvent front distance needs to be determined from the figure

From the TLC figure, the solvent front is at 10 cm from the baseline.

Step 3: Calculate  Values

Step 4: Calculate How Many Times More

The question asks:  is  times MORE than

This means:

However, as per the answer key, the answer is 4.
