Solution

The correct option is A By not spending money, you are saving it.
The correct answer Option A.
The proverb means that saving a penny is as good as earning one. Thus by not spending money, you are saving it.
Options B and C are incorrect because they do not comply with the meaning of the proverb.
Only option A expresses the meaning of the proverb correctly.
Thus it is the correct answer.
Since we have option A as the correct answer, option D-none of the above cannot be the correct answer.
