    A.

    acceded, exceeded

    B.

    exceeded, exceeded

    C.

    acceded, acceded

    D.

    exceeded, acceded

    Correct option is A

    The correct option to fill in the blanks is (A) acceded, exceeded.

    Explanation: "Acceded" means to agree to a demand; "Exceeded" means to surpass a limit or expectation — both fit perfectly in the context.

    Example: I acceded to their demand because our sales had exceeded expectations.

    Acceded (हिंदी अर्थ): सहमत होना

    Exceeded (हिंदी अर्थ): सीमा पार करना

    Meanings of the other options:

    · B - Exceeded, Exceeded: Repetition doesn’t work logically.

    · C - Acceded, Acceded: Doesn’t make sense for sales.

    · D - Exceeded, Acceded: Illogical order of cause-effect.
