Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

II

Solution :

The correct option is II.

Let us calculate the total cost for both cases to compare them step-by-step.

Case I:
We have 200 packets, and each packet costs ₹ 250.
Total cost for I=200×250=50,000

Case II:
We have 20 dozens of items. Since 1 dozen equals 12 items, the total number of items is:
Total items=20×12=240 items

Each item costs ₹ 250.
Total cost for II=240×250=60,000

Comparing the two total costs:
60,000>50,000

Therefore, Case II costs more than Case I.
