Option 2: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation
of Assertion (A)
Option 3: Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is False
Option 4: Assertion (A) is False but Reason (R) is True
Correct Answer:
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation

Solution :
The demand for one product is connected to the desire for another good when two goods are complementary.
Products that complement the main product are closely tied to it. Frequently, you can't eat them by yourself. As a result, demand for the primary product drives demand for its complementary product. Marketers either market a complementary product after selling the primary product or sell them both at the same time. They can boost sales in this way.
Hence option a is the correct answer.
