(D) Mr. Raman gave him an ____ of Rupees 2000.(IV) add

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

A close assistant is an 'aide'. Numbers that fail to total correctly do not 'add' up. Content criticised for sensitivity is an 'ad', short for advertisement. Money given as help is 'aid'. Hence A-I, B-IV, C-II, D-III.
