Detailed Solution

Given:

Quantity of milk sold by a farmer in one month = 237 litres

S.P. of 1 litre milk = Rs19

To find:

Total earning of the farmer

Calculation:

S.P. of 1 litre=  Rs19

Earning by selling 237 litre milk =?

By using the cross multiplication method,

Earning by selling 237 litres of milk= Rs237×19

Solving the multiplication,

237×19=237×(10+9)

 237×19=(237×10)+(237×9)-----(1)

 237×10=2370-----(2)

 237×9=2133-----(3)

Substituting values of (2) & (3) in (1), we get,

237×19=2370+2133

                 = 4503

Therefore, the total earnings of the farmer are Rs4503.

Hence, the correct option is 'D'.
