Solution

The correct option is B

110


Fraction of children with pens = 110
Fraction of children with pencils = 45
Fraction of children having either a pen or a pencil =110+45

LCM of 10 and 5 is 10.
110+45 =110+4×25×2=110+810=1+8!0=910

Fraction of kids who neither have pen or pencil = 1 - Fraction of kids who either have pen or pencil
=1910=1×101×10910=10910=110

Fraction of kids who neither have pen or pencil is 110.
