Assertion (A) : The cost of 16 bulbs is ₹ 144. The number of bulbs than can be bought for ₹ 270 is 30. Reason (R) : In inverse variation, the ratio of one kind of like terms is equal to the inverse ratio of the second kind of like terms. 1. Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation for A. 2. Both A and R are correct, and R is not the correct explanation for A. 3. A is true, but R is false. 4. A is false, but R is true.

Given, The cost of 16 bulbs = ₹ 144 The cost of 1 bulb = = ₹ 9 Number of bulbs for ₹ 270 = = 30 So, assertion (A) is true. In inverse variation, So, reason (R) is true but, reason (R) does not explains assertion(A). Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
