The following bar chart shows the trends of foreign direct investment (FDI) into India from all over the world.

What was the average of India's FDI over the years 1992-1995 (rounded off to the nearest integer)?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 10.

According to the given chart,

India's FDI for 1992 = 5.7 millions

India's FDI for 1993 = 10.15 millions

India's FDI for 1994 = 12.16 millions

India's FDI for 1995 = 10.22 millions

Total of India's FDI from year 1992 - 1995 = (5.7 + 10.15 + 12.16 + 10.22) millions

⇒ 38.23 millions

Now, Average = $Total\ FDI \over Number\ of\ years$

⇒ $38.23 \over 4$ = 9.55 ≈ 10

Hence the required answer is 10.
