Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

The correct answer is 4) Seychelles. The Republic of Seychelles uses the Seychelles rupee (SCR) as its official currency, as shown in country currency listings [2]. Bhutan’s national currency is the ngultrum; although Indian rupees circulate and are held alongside the ngultrum for cross-border purposes, Bhutan does not have a currency officially called the rupee [1]. Malaysia and the Maldives use other currencies, so among the given options only Seychelles has a currency officially named the rupee. This makes option 4 the correct choice.
