    B) Rs.130000

    C) Rs.100000                  

    D) Rs.140000

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Jaysingh advised to distribute rice and wheat worth Rs.50 and also give Rs.20 every 6 months for 2 years. There are 1000 people in king's kingdom. So, Cost of rice and wheat = Rs.50\[\times \]1000 = Rs.50,000 If Rs.20 to be distributed every 6 months, it means money distributed 2 times in a year. So in 2 years amount distributed 4 times. Per person amount = Rs.20\[\times \]4 = Rs.80 For 1000 people, amount to be distributed = Rs.80\[\times \]1000 = Rs.80,000 So, total expenses of king in this case = Rs.50,000 + Rs.80,000 = Rs.1, 30, 000.
