The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to decode the prices of the items labeled "IIT" and "NICK" using the letter-number mapping provided by the shopkeeper. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the letter-number mapping The shopkeeper has replaced the digits 0-9 with the letters in "BROWNSTICK" as follows: - B = 0 - R = 1 - O = 2 - W = 3 - N = 4 - S = 5 - T = 6 - I = 7 - C = 8 - K = 9 ### Step 2: Decode the price of "IIT" Using the mapping: - I = 7 - I = 7 - T = 6 So, "IIT" translates to the number 776. ### Step 3: Decode the price of "NICK" Using the mapping: - N = 4 - I = 7 - C = 8 - K = 9 So, "NICK" translates to the number 4789. ### Step 4: Calculate the total amount Now, we need to add the two decoded prices: - Price of IIT = 776 - Price of NICK = 4789 Perform the addition: ``` 776 + 4789 ------- 5565 ``` ### Final Answer The total amount the customer has to pay is **5565**. ---
