उत्तर
When total utility is maximum, marginal utility is zero. The law of diminishing marginal utility claims that as a consumer consumes more units of a good, the additional satisfaction (marginal utility) declines. After the total utility increases, continuing consumption would result in negative marginal utility, decreasing satisfaction.
