Given Timmy spends half of his allowance on his pet Din and half on candies.
How much money did Tim spend on Din ?
Stat 1: Din eats 1.5kg of food every day and we are not sure how much 1.5kg of food costs... Insufficient
Stat 2: Timmy buys 110 gr of candies each day. One kg of candies costs 7.5 $
Then 110 gr of candies cost = 7.5 *110 / 1000 = 0.825 per day.
Since in the stem it is mentioned that he spends his allowance half - half. if he is spending 0.825 on candies which is half and another half is 0.825 on his pet. Total is 0.825 * 2 = 1.65 $... Sufficient..
IMO correct option is B.
OA please...will correct if I missed anything.
