• A. $112$
• B. $104$
• C. $108$
• D. $116$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $108$

Given, Stacy bought $462$ oranges, out of which $354$ oranges were rotten.
So, the number of oranges that were not rotten $=462-354$

Let’s represent each of these numbers based on their place value and subtract them.
$462$ can be decomposed as $400+60+2$.
$354$ can be decomposed as $300+50+4$.


So, $108$ oranges ware not rotten.
