23.1.2 Effective Width of Flange.
In the absence of more accurate determination. The effective width of the flange may be taken as the following but in no case greater than the breadth of the web plus half the sum of the clear distances to the adjacent beams on either side.
a) For T-beams, B(eff) = (Lo/6)+bw+6Df.
Lo = Effective span length.
Bw = Width of rib.
Df = Depth of flange.

1 Bf=Lo/6+bw+6df.
2 Centre to centre distance between adjacent slab,
Minimum of both of them.
So correct answer is B.
2 Centre to centre distance between adjacent slab,
Minimum of both of them.
So correct answer is B.

The width of flange means the t section above horizontal member and the flange is always less than 1/3 and distance.

It means effective width should not be less than least of all the above values.

It means all of the above are correct but we have to take the smallest value.

Least of above means we have to choose the smallest value of all the above.

This answer is according to CP114-1957 i.e. British code of practice.

And according to me, ' the correct answer is A' only.
