Answer : Option A

Explanation :

$\frac { 144 } {0.144 }$ = $\frac { 14.4 } {X }$

$\frac { 144*1000 } { 144 }$ = $\frac { 14.4 } {X }$

x = $\frac { 14.4 } {1000 }$ =0.0144

Answer : Option B

Explanation :

Suppose commodity X will cost 40 paise more than Y after z years.

Then, (4.20 + 0.40z) - (6.30 + 0.15z) = 0.40

0.25z = 0.40 + 2.10

z = $\frac { 2.50} { 0.25 }$ = $\frac { 250} { 25 }$ =10

X will cost 40 paise more than Y 10 years after 2001 i.e., 2011.
