    Answer : Option b

    Explanation:

    In simple words, marginal utility refers to the addition to the utility satisfaction of the consumer when he or she consumes one more unit of such commodity.

    If the consumer gets more satisfied after additional consumption then the marginal utility will be positive or otherwise negative.

    It is calculated by dividing the difference in utility with the difference in units.

    Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is b.
