• A. 43 = 3 + 4, 44 = 80 + 7; Total = 88
  
• B. 44 = 4 + 4, 43 = 40 + 0; Total = 88
  
• C. 44 = 40 + 4, 43 = 40 + 3; Total = 87
  
• D. 44 = 40 + 4, 43 = 80 + 7; Total = 87

Answer 1

The correct option is C 44 = 40 + 4, 43 = 40 + 3; Total = 87


Detailed step-by-step solution:
44 when decomposed or broken apart gives 40 and 4.
44 = 40 + 4

43 when decomposed or broken apart gives 40 and 3.
43= 40 + 3

Step: 2 = 80 + 7 = 87
Total number of vehicles = 44 + 43 = 87
87 has 8 Tens and 7 Ones.

Tens	Ones

Hence, Option A is correct.
