    47

    B.

    46

    C.

    46.5

    D.

    47.5

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 …….. , 92

    Formula used:

    Average=Sum of all numbersTotal numbers\text{Average} = \frac{\text{Sum of all numbers}}{\text{Total numbers}} ​ 

    The sum of the first n natural numbers is given by the formula:

    Sum=n(n+1)2\text{Sum} = \frac{n(n + 1)}{2}

    Solution :

    n = 92 

    Sum=92(92+1)2=92×932=4278\text{Sum} = \frac{92(92 + 1)}{2} = \frac{92 \times 93}{2} = 4278 

    Then, 

    Average=SumTotal numbers=427892=46.5\text{Average} = \frac{\text{Sum}}{\text{Total numbers}} = \frac{4278}{92} = 46.5​​

    The average of all natural numbers from 1 to 92 is 46.5

    Thus , the correct answer is option (c) 46.5
