    A)  15                              

    B)  20

    C)  25                  

    D)       10

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     If the number of correct sums be Rs. x, then. \[x\times 3-(30-x)\times 2=40\] \[\Rightarrow \]            \[3x-60+2x=40\] \[\Rightarrow \]            \[5x=60+40=100\] \[\Rightarrow \]            \[x=20\]
