    From 2003 to 2007, the average production of jute fabric by company Q was how much (in lakh metres) more than that of the company P? ​​

    A.

    3.8

    B.

    4.6

    C.

    5.9

    D.

    6.4

    Correct option is B

    Given:
    Production of P: 110, 130, 118, 200, 240
    Production of Q: 106, 140, 110, 190, 275
    Formula Used:
    Average = Sum of items / Number of items
    Solution:
    Sum of P = 110 + 130 + 118 + 200 + 240 = 798
    Sum of Q = 106 + 140 + 110 + 190 + 275 = 821
    Difference in average = SumQSumP5=8217985=235 \frac{Sum Q - Sum P}{5} = \frac{821 - 798}{5} = \frac{23}{5}​ = 4.6
    So the correct answer is (b).
