Correct Answer :

Option B

₹ 68

₹ 68

Solution :

The correct option is ₹ 68.

Let's calculate the cost of the items bought by Sunita step-by-step:

Step 1: Find the cost of 3 Samosas
Given that the cost of 8 Samosas is ₹ 156.
The cost of 1 Samosa is:
1568=19.50
So, the cost of 3 Samosas is:
3×19.50=58.50

Step 2: Find the cost of 3 Idlis
Given that the cost of 4 Idlis is ₹ 98.
The cost of 1 Idli is:
984=24.50
So, the cost of 3 Idlis is:
3×24.50=73.50

Step 3: Calculate the total bill and the money left
The total cost of 3 Samosas and 3 Idlis is:
58.50+73.50=132
Since Sunita pays with a ₹ 200 note, the money left with her is:
200-132=68
Therefore, the money left with Sunita is ₹ 68.
