Given:

20 men working for 10 days earn ₹71,800.

We need to find how much 26 men will earn in 17 days.

Calculation:

The total earnings are directly proportional to the number of men and the number of days they work.

Let the amount earned by 26 men in 17 days be x. We can set up the following proportion:

(20 × 10) / (26 × 17) = 71800 / x

⇒ 200 / 442 = 71800 / x

⇒ x = (71800 × 442) / 200

⇒ x = 31735600 / 200

⇒ x = ₹1,58,678

∴ The correct answer is: ₹1,58,678
