ONE OF THE ANSWERS IS CORRECT

Explanation / Answer

First of all the questin gives you error as beacuse

catch (IndexOutOfBoundsException ex2)
{ rupees -= 200; }

catch (Exception ex)
{ rupees += 100; }

always catch Exception should be written in at the end if nor it gives you error stating that exception IndexOutOfBoundsException has already been caught

Answer is 600

why?

rupees is 500

in the try block inventory[10] is trying to access 10 index which is not yet defined

so it gives you error IndexOutOfBoundsException then rupees decremented by 200

rupees is 300

then after finally block executes where reupees is incremented by 300

rupees is 600
