1. Little Pika who is five and half years old has just learnt addition. However, he does not know how to carry. For example, he can add 14 and 5, but he does not know how to add 14 and 7. How many pairs of consecutive integers between 1000 and 2000 (both 1000 and 2000 included) can Little Pika add?

Little Pika can add (1000, 1001), (1001, 1002), (1002, 1003), (1003, 1004), (1004, 1005) and (1009, 1010). Similarly, he can add (1010, 1011), (1011, 1012), (1012, 1013), (1013, 1014), (1014, 1015) and (1019, 1020). Similarly, he can add (1020, 1021), (1021, 1022), (1022, 1023), (1023, 1024), (1024, 1025) and (1029, 1030).
Similarly, he can add (1030, 1031), (1031, 1032), (1032, 1033), (1033, 1034), (1034, 1035) and (1039, 1040).
Similarly, he can add (1040, 1041), (1041, 1042), (1042, 1043), (1043, 1044) , (1044, 1045) and (1049, 1050).
We can see that there are 30 cases when we have changed unit and tens digit. Now the hundreds digit can be anything from {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}. Hence, total number of such pairs which Pika can add = 5*30 = 150. He can also number of form, (1099, 1100), (1199, 1200), (1299, 1300), (1399, 1400) (1499, 1500) and (1999, 2000) Therefore, we can say that Pika can add 150+6 = 156 numbers. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
