Correct option is A
Given: BOOK - PEN = 8
First, find the sum of the place values of each word:
BOOK: 2+15+15+11=43
PEN: 16+5+N14=35
Now, subtract the values:
43−35=8
This matches the given result.
Now, solve for PEN - NIB:
PEN: 16+5+14=35
NIB: 14+9+2=25
Now, subtract the values:
35−25=10
So, the correct answer is (A) 10.
