The given table shows the production of T-shirts by four companies i.e., C1, C2, C3 and C4 over the four years.

Year Production (in thousands)
C1 C2 C3 C4
2019 243 244 244 240
2020 248 239 236 230
2021 232 240 235 248
2022 242 244 230 242

Which company had the maximum average production of T-shirts during these four years?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. C2.

We know that,

Average = Sum of observations/Number of observations

The average production of T-shirts by C1 = (243 + 248 + 232 + 242)/4 = 241.25

The average production of T-shirts by C2 = (244 + 239 + 240 + 244)/4 = 241.75

The average production of T-shirts by C3 = (244 + 236 + 235 + 230)/4 = 236.25

The average production of T-shirts by C4 = (240 + 230 + 248 + 242)/4 = 240

Hence,

C2 had the maximum average production of T-shirts during these four years
