• B. Jinx, $4$
• C. Count Moon, $5$
• D. Jinx, $5$

Answer 1

The correct option is C Count Moon, $5$

Detailed step by step solution:
Count Moon goes to the market on every Wednesday of March, which are on $3^{\text{rd}},{10}^{\text{th}},{17}^{\text{th}}{24}^{\text{th}},$ and ${31}^{\text{st}}.$
So, Count Moon goes to the market $5$ times in the month of March.
Jinx goes to the market on every Friday of March, which are on $5^{\text{th}},{12}^{\text{th}},{19}^{\text{th}},$ and ${26}^{\text{th}}.$
So, Jinx goes to the market $4$ times in the month of March.
Hence, Count Moon goes to market more number of times, i.e., $5$ times, while Jinx goes to the market only $4$ times in March.
