Solution

The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
Assertion : (66)2+8=4444.
If it is true for 2 digits then it also true for n digits .
Hence the assertion is correct .
Reason :
11 is divided by 11. So, 11 is not a prime number.
Similarly 1111 and 111111 is also not a prime number.
So, (11...11) is not a prime number.
Hence Assertion is correct but Reason is wrong.
