    I used a calculator trick..... So step 1 add 0.1 + 0.11 .... So you will get the sum up to 2 places .... Now step 2 option testing method you can substitute 2 in place of n and check if the options are matching with the ans you got in step 1 ..... Note if you add up to 2 palaces substitute 2 ...or How many places you are adding that no. U should substitute that no. ....
