    Direction: Consider the following story to answer questions. In ancient times, there was a king named Vikramaditya who was very kind and helpful for poor people of his kingdom. He decided to remove poverty from his kingdom. He gave to an order to his ministers that find poor people in his kingdom. They found 1000 poor people in kingdom. So King appointed Romsingh, Vikrant and Jay Singh from his ministers to come up with idea of removing poverty. Vikrant suggested that king should distribute Rs.25 as one time allowance and Rs.5 per month for 11 months. Jaysingh suggested that king should distribute rice and wheat worth Rs.50 and also give Rs.20 every 6 months for 2 years. Ramsingh suggested that king should distribute Rs.75 to each person in the kingdom as a one-time allowance. Whose suggestion will lead to the least expenses for the king Vikramaditya?

    A) Vikrant                        

    B) Jaysingh      

    C) Ramsingh    

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Going by Jaysingh's advice, king's expenses = Rs.130000 (as found in Q20) Going by Vikrant's advice, kings expenses per person = Rs.80 For 1000 people, king's expenses = Rs.80\[\times \]1000 = Rs.80000 Ramsingh suggested that king should distribute Rs.75 to each person in the kingdom as a one-time allowance. In this case, king's expenses = Rs.75\[\times \]1000 = Rs.75000 Least of these is Rs.75000 Hence, Ramsingh's advice will lead to least expenses for king.
