Describe, how the answer is 38.23?

The answer is 40cm because here in question the value of C=8 is wrong. M=18 is for M15 concrete and for M15 C=5.

n(actual neutral axis) =k(design constant) *d, =0.4*460=184mm = 18.4cm.
Permissible working stress=1400 kg/cm2(mild steel),
Then, k = 0.4(madular ratio=18.67),
n/3 = 61.33.
Lever arm = 460 - 61.33(d-n/3),
= 398.67mm,
= 39.86cm
~40cm.
