Solution

The correct option is D ₹140
Price of a pen = ₹15
Price of a pencil = ₹4

Price of 8 pens is equal to eight times the price of one pen.

So, price of 8 pens = $15 \times 8$ = ₹120

Price of 5 pencils is equal to five times the price of one pencil.

So, price of 5 pencils = $4 \times 5$ = ₹20

Total price of 8 pens and 5 pencils = 120 $+$ 20 = ₹140
