Answer 1

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Explanation:

Both statements are true: demand and supply are the main tools of microeconomics, which studies individual economic units. However, the definition of microeconomics does not explain why demand and supply are its tools.
