Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : A in 2019 Given:
Formula used: Average = Sum of observation/Total number of observation Calculation: First, find the average of E ⇒ (117 + 120 + 132 + 133 + 145 + 187)/6 ⇒ 834/6 = 139 Now, find 1.1 times of 139 ⇒ 139 × 1.1 = 152.9 Which is closed to A in 2019 - 153 ∴ A in 2019 is the closest to 1.1 times the average of E in 6 years. |
