Correct option is B
Solution:
From the graph:
At 0 carat → Price = 0 lakh
At 2.5 carat → Price = 5 lakh
This is a straight-line graph, so the price increases uniformly.
Price per carat = 5 ÷ 2.5 = 2 lakh per carat
We need to find the largest diamond that can be purchased for Rs. 4.5 lakh.
So,
Weight = Price ÷ Price per carat
Weight = 4.5 ÷ 2
Weight = 2.25 carat
Answer: The largest diamond that can be purchased is 2.25 carat.
