Question

Eighty rupees ........................ too much for this bag.

• A. is
• B. has
• C. are
• D. have

Answer 1

Answer:

A. is

• Eighty rupees refers to one amount of money, not separate units.

• When money is spoken of as a sum/amount, it is treated as singular.

• Therefore, we use the singular verb “is.”

❌ are – used when rupees are counted individually
❌ has / have – not suitable linking verbs here

📌 Rule to remember:

A sum of money → singular verb

✔ So, the correct answer is (A) is.
