Correct Answer: To be very expensive.


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Costs an arm and a leg is an idiom used to convey that something is extremely expensive. It implies that the cost of the item or service is so high that it figuratively feels like it would require the sacrifice of body parts (an arm and a leg) to afford it. It emphasises exorbitant or overly high prices.
