Correct option is A

Information Given:
3 pens + 2 notebooks = ₹76
Cost of one pen = ₹12 (assumption, since missing in question)

Formula Used:
Total Cost = (No. of pens × Cost of pen) + (No. of notebooks × Cost of notebook)

Explanation:
Logic: Substitute pen price and solve for notebook.

3 × 12 + 2N = 76
36 + 2N = 76
2N = 40
N = 20
