Solution

The correct option is C

(i), (iii)


(i) The cost price increases as the amount of grocery purchased increases and vice-versa.

(ii) Time required in completing a work is inversely proportional to the number of workers doing that work. If workers are more in number, then work can be done in less time and vice-versa.

(iii) If speed is constant, then as the distance covered increases, the time taken to cover that distance also increases and vice-versa.
