The marginal utility of the second banana, when measured in units of "utils", can be considered as the differential or incremental utility gained from consuming the second banana after having already consumed the first. In this case, since the total amount of utils from consuming two bananas is 490 and the amount of utils from consuming one is 350, the marginal utility is 490 - 350 = 140 utils, so the answer is c.
