    What would be the total cost of 4 pens and 5 erasers?                Pens: Rs. 21 each           Erasers: Rs. 5 each

    A) Rs. 110                

    B)       Rs. 111

    C) Rs. 112               

    D)         Rs. 109

    E) None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Answer (d) is correct. Here, the cost of 1 pen = Rs. 21 Therefore, the cost of 4 pens = Rs. (21 + 21 + 21 + 21) = Rs. 84 Now, the cost of 1 eraser = Rs.5 Therefore, the cost of 4 erasers = Rs. (5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5) = Rs. 25 So we have, the total cost of 4 pens and 5 erasers \[=Rs.\text{ }84+Rs.\text{ }25=Rs.\text{ }\left( 84+25 \right)=Rs.\text{ }109\] Rest of the options is incorrect because of the correctness of option (d).
