Solution
The correct option is C ₹3
₹112 spend by chirag can be rounded off to ₹110
one pen costs = ₹10
Cost of 8 pens = ₹10 x 8
= ₹80
Cost of 9 erasers = ₹110 - ₹80
= ₹30
9 erasers can be rounded off to 10 erasers
So the estimated cost of one eraser = ₹30 ÷ 10
= ₹3
₹112 spend by chirag can be rounded off to ₹110
