Match the LIST-I with LIST-II

LIST-I	LIST-II
A. 60% of 264	I. 20% of 6875
B. 60% of 28% of 240	II. 50% of 825.35
C. 85% of 485.5	III. 15% of 1056
D. 550% of 250	IV. 8.4% of 480

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I

A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV

A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

✅ Correct Option: 4

To start with, we can check C or D, since it has three possible options from given alternatives.

D. $550\% \times 250 = \frac{550 \times 250}{100} = 55 \times 25 = 1375$

Possible options are I, II, or IV.

I. $20\% \times 6875 =\frac{6875}{5} = 1375$

Luckily, you get it on the first try :)

Now, since D-I is a pair, Options 2 and 3 are eliminated.

Now, let's check for C. $85\% of 485.5$

It may take a while to solve these.

By observation, we find A. $60\% \times 264$ are comparatively easy to solve, providing a unique solution.

$0.6 \times 264 = 158.4$

Possibility for A is II or III.

II. $50 \% \times 825.35 = 412.675$

Since A-II is not a possible pair, A-III is the only possible solution.

Hence, correct option is Option 4

Cross-verifying A-III pair: III. $15\% \times 1056$

$10\% \times 1056 = 105.6$

$5\% \times 1056 = 52.8$

Thus, adding the two, we get $15\% \times 1056 = 158.4$
