(C) Given that $(1+x)^{15} = \sum_{r=0}^{15} {}^{15}C_r x^r = a_0 + a_1 x + \ldots + a_{15} x^{15}$.Comparing coefficients,we have $a_r = {}^{15}C_r$.We need to evaluate $\sum_{r=1}^{15} r \frac{a_r}{a_{r-1}}$.Using the property $\frac{{}^nC_r}{{}^nC_{r-1}} = \frac{n-r+1}{r}$,we get:$\frac{a_r}{a_{r-1}} = \frac{{}^{15}C_r}{{}^{15}C_{r-1}} = \frac{15-r+1}{r} = \frac{16-r}{r}$.Substituting this into the summation:$\sum_{r=1}^{15} r \left( \frac{16-r}{r} ight) = \sum_{r=1}^{15} (16-r)$.This is an arithmetic progression: $(16-1) + (16-2) + \ldots + (16-15) = 15 + 14 + \ldots + 1$.The sum of the first $n$ natural numbers is $\frac{n(n+1)}{2}$.For $n=15$,the sum is $\frac{15 	imes 16}{2} = 15 	imes 8 = 120$.

If $(1+x)^{15}=a_0+a_1 x+\ldots+a_{15} x^{15}$,then $\sum_{r=1}^{15} r \frac{a_r}{a_{r-1}}$ is equal to
