Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Correct Answer is option 3 i.e. 22.4

Application

Total income of company = 225 + 280 + 325 + 350 + 350 = 1530

Hence,

Average income of company = 1530/5 = 306

And

Expenditure of company in 2015 = 250

Hence,

Required percentage = (306 - 250) × 100/250 = 22.4%
