Hence, Option C is correct.

Common Explanation:

Both G and B do not sit immediate left of H.

Inferences:

From the above reference, we get two different cases:

References:

D sits second to the left of B.

A doesn’t sit beside D.

E doesn’t face C.

Inferences:

From the above reference, case 1 will be eliminated because A doesn’t sit beside of D.

So, the final arrangement:

Standard Coin During the Mauryan Period

• Nishka: Nishka was a standard unit of measurement during the Mauryan period, but it was not the standard coin.



• Krishnala: Krishnala was a type of coin used in ancient India, but it was not the standard coin during the Mauryan period.



• Pana: Pana was considered the standard coin during the Mauryan period. It was a common currency used for trade and transactions.



• Suvarna: Suvarna was a valuable coin made of gold, but it was not the standard coin during the Mauryan period.

Therefore, the correct answer is Pana, which was regarded as the standard coin during the Mauryan period.

Let the number be x.
According to the question,

Given number: 7 8 3 4 3 2 9 5 1 3

After interchanging the digits,
New number: 8 7 4 3 2 3 5 9 3 1

6th digit from right end

27 → 3³; 125 → 5³; 64 → 4³

Therefore ? = 6³ = 216.

Clearly, each word is coded by the numeral which is 1 less than the number of letters in the word.
Since, there are 10 letters in the word GOVERNMENT, so required = 10 – 1 = 9.
Hence, option C is correct.

Statement: Pliny complained that Indian trade was a serious drain of wealth of the Roman empire.
This statement proves that India gained from the trade with the West during the pre-Gupta period because:
1. Pliny's complaint:
- Pliny, a Roman author and natural philosopher, complained that Indian trade was draining the wealth of the Roman empire.
- This indicates that India was able to export valuable goods and commodities to the West, resulting in significant economic gains.
2. Indian exports:
- The complaint implies that India had valuable products that were in high demand in the West.
- This suggests that India had a thriving trade industry and was able to export goods that were profitable.
3. Economic prosperity:
- The fact that Pliny considered Indian trade as a drain on Roman wealth indicates that India was economically prosperous during the pre-Gupta period.
- This suggests that India gained wealth, power, and influence through its trade with the West.
4. Long-distance trade:
- Pliny's complaint also highlights the existence of long-distance trade routes between India and the West.
- The trade routes facilitated the exchange of goods, ideas, and cultural influences, further contributing to India's economic and cultural growth.
In conclusion, Pliny's complaint about the drain of wealth from the Roman empire due to Indian trade provides evidence that India gained from its trade with the West during the pre-Gupta period. India's ability to export valuable goods, its economic prosperity, and the existence of long-distance trade routes all support this statement.

- B: Get away - This phrasal verb means to escape or go on vacation, which also doesn't fit the context.
- C: Get along - This is the correct answer because it refers to having a good relationship with someone, as mentioned earlier.
- D: Get down - This phrasal verb means to dance or feel depressed, and it is not relevant to the given context.
