How about you put in the effort of typing up the question if you want a note worthy response.
Yep.

I just plugged in values for this . I assumed that I = 100.
so as per the question , (2\100)+ (100+1)\2 => 2+101\2 = 105\2
If u plug in I as 100 in the answer choices , you will get option c as the answer and the rest are eliminated .
Hope that helps.

Nisha,

Thanks....I revisited the question stem ( with a fresh pair of eyes & brain :) ) , plugged in values for I and got the answer. Guess, I need calm down a bit & think straight

cheers
