Solution

The correct option is A 2,100 pt
Amount of oil in the jar = 2,850 pt

Amount of first oil in the jar = 440 pt
Amount of second oil in the jar = 310 pt

Total amount of both the oils = 440 pt + 310 pt = 750 pt


To calculate the amount of third oil in the jar, we will subtract the amount of two oils in the jar from the total quantity of oil in the jar.


Hence, the quantity of the third oil is 2,100 pt.
