    A.

    258

    B.

    C.

    D.

    Correct option is A

    Given
    Cost of 1 pen = 8.50
    Cost of 1 pencil = 5.50
    Number of pens = 20
    Number of pencils = 16

    Formula Used
    Total Cost = (Cost of 1 pen × Number of pens) + (Cost of 1 pencil × Number of pencils)

    Solution
    Total cost of 20 pens = 20 × 8.50 = 170

    Total cost of 16 pencils = 16 × 5.50 = 88

    Total overall cost = 170 + 88 = 258
