Given:

Company A: items = 32 000, cost/100 = ₹45

Company C: items = 40 000, cost/100 = ₹50

Company E: items = 35 000, cost/100 = ₹55

Formula used:

Total cost = items × (cost/100)

Calculations:

⇒ Cost of A: \((32000×45)/100\) = \((32000×0.45)\) = 14400

Cost of C: \((40000×50)/100\) = \((40000×0.50)\) = 20000

Cost of E: \((35000×55)/100\) = \((35000×0.55)\) = 19250

∴ Total cost = ₹14400 + ₹20000 + ₹19250 = ₹53650

∴ The correct answer is option 3.
