Answer :
Explanation :
1. Answer (c) Each time we order 1, one apple is added to the basket but each time when 4 is ordered, one apple is removed from it. Required number of apples = number of 1's - number of 4's = 6 - 4 = 2 2. Answer (d) Each time we order 1, 2 or 3, one fruit is added to the basket but when ever we order 4, two fruits are removed from it. Required number = Number of 1's + Number of 2's + Number of 3's - 2 x (Number of 4's) = 6 + 6 + 7 - (2x4) = 19 - 8 = 11.
