Answer 1

The correct option is B $40+9$

Say:
We have to find a number that is less than 6 Tens and 6 Ones from the given options.

Steps:
$\bullet$ 6 Tens and 6 Ones = 66
$\bullet$ Let us look at our options.
$\bullet$ Option A: $60+9=69$. This is greater than 66, so it is incorrect.
$\bullet$ Option B: $40+9=49$. It is less than 66, so it is correct.
$\bullet$ Option C: $50+11=66$, so it is incorrect.
$\bullet$ Option D: $70+5=75$, which is greater than 66. So it is incorrect.
$\bullet$ Hence, Option B is correct.
