Let the amounts contributed by the four students be 2x, 4x, 5x, and 7x respectively.

Given that the largest amount contributed is K4.20, we have:

7x = K4.20
x = K4.20 / 7
x = K0.60

Therefore, the total amount contributed by the four students is:
2x + 4x + 5x + 7x = 18x
= 18 * K0.60
= K10.80

Therefore, the total amount contributed by the four students is K10.80.
