Let the amounts contributed by the four students be 2x, 4x, 5x, and 7x respectively.
Given that the largest amount contributed is K4.20, we have:
7x = K4.20 x = K4.20 / 7 x = K0.60
Therefore, the total amount contributed by the four students is: 2x + 4x + 5x + 7x = 18x = 18 * K0.60 = K10.80
Therefore, the total amount contributed by the four students is K10.80.
