Answer (1)
Correct Answer: INR 80
Solution : Given: The cost of a notebook increases in proportion to the number of pages in it. A notebook having 100 pages costs INR 20.
Let the cost of a notebook having 400 pages be $x$.
According to the question,
$100:20::400:x$

⇒ $x=\frac{20×400}{100}=80$
Hence, the correct answer is INR 80.
