(C) Let the two numbers be $3x$ and $4x$,where $x$ is a common multiplier.According to the problem,the sum of these two numbers is $420$.So,$3x + 4x = 420$.$7x = 420$.$x = 420 / 7 = 60$.The two numbers are $3 \times 60 = 180$ and $4 \times 60 = 240$.Therefore,the greater of the two numbers is $240$.
