Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: No Article
Explanation
The definite article 'the' is used for specific or previously mentioned nouns. Here no specific sum has been identified, so 'the' is not appropriate.
The indefinite articles 'a' and 'an' are used with singular countable nouns. '1000 rupees' is plural, so neither 'a' nor 'an' can be used.
Amounts expressed with a number plus a plural currency noun generally take no article. Example: "I can't shop with only 1000 rupees."
Tip: You can make the sentence more natural by using 'with' and 'only': "I can't shop with only 1000 rupees." or "I can't buy anything with only 1000 rupees."
