The correct answer is

₹ 48,000

The pie chart is fixed, so the first step is to find what one degree is worth after the change. Football occupies 45° and now stands for ₹ 18,000, giving \(\frac{18{,}000}{45} = 400\) rupees per degree.

Hockey occupies 100° and Basketball 20°, so together they cover \(100^\circ + 20^\circ = 120^\circ\).

Their combined spending is therefore \(120 \times 400 = 48{,}000\).

Hence, the combined amount spent on Hockey and Basketball is ₹ 48,000.
