• A. (i) 4 (ii) 80 (iii) 10
• B. (i) 4 (ii) 80 (iii) 1
  
• C. (i) 400 (ii) 8 (iii) 1
  
• D. (i) 400 (ii) 80 (iii) 1
  

Answer 1

The correct option is D (i) 400 (ii) 80 (iii) 1


Number of novels Pawlly has = 481
If we expand 481, we get 4 Hundreds + 8 Tens + 1 One = 400 + 80 + 1.
The number of mystery, thriller, and science fiction novels are marked as Hundreds, Tens, and Ones in the HTO table.
Therefore, there are 400 mystery novels, 80 thriller novels, and 1 science fiction novel.
