Understanding Country and Currency Relationships

The question asks us to find the currency of Pakistan based on the relationship shown for Myanmar. This is an analogy question where the pattern in the first pair needs to be applied to the second pair.

Analyzing the Relationship: Myanmar : Kyat

In the first pair, "Myanmar : Kyat", the relationship is that Kyat is the official currency used in the country Myanmar. So, the pattern is:

  • Country : Currency

Applying the Relationship: Pakistan : ?

Now we need to apply the same "Country : Currency" relationship to the second pair, "Pakistan : ?". Pakistan is the country, and we need to find its official currency.

Let's look at the options provided to identify the currency of Pakistan:

  1. Rial
  2. Dirham
  3. Rupee
  4. Dinar

Identifying the Currency of Pakistan

We need to recall or know the official currency of Pakistan.

  • The official currency of Pakistan is the Rupee. It is often referred to as the Pakistani Rupee (PKR) to distinguish it from other countries that also use the Rupee as their currency.

Comparing this with the options, we see that 'Rupee' is one of the choices.

Evaluating Other Options

Let's quickly check the currencies mentioned in other options to be sure:

  • Rial: Currencies like Omani Rial, Iranian Rial, Yemeni Rial, Saudi Riyal are used in various countries in the Middle East.
  • Dirham: The United Arab Emirates Dirham and the Moroccan Dirham are examples of this currency.
  • Dinar: Currencies like Kuwaiti Dinar, Bahraini Dinar, Jordanian Dinar, Algerian Dinar are used in several countries, primarily in the Middle East and North Africa.

None of these are the official currency of Pakistan.

Conclusion

Since Kyat is the currency of Myanmar, applying the same relationship, the currency of Pakistan is Rupee.

Therefore, the correct option is Rupee.
