  • D

Answer

Correct option: A.
$0.41$
The decimal number which should be added to $5.09$ to get $5.5$ is obtained by subtracting $5.09$ from $5.5$
Converting the given decimals to like decimals, we have $5.09$ and $5.50$
Now,
$= 5.50 - 5.09$
$= 0.41$
$\therefore$ Required decimal $= 5.50 - 5.09 = 0.41$
Thus, $0.41$ must be added to $5.09$ to get $5.5$
