Options:

₹600

₹560

₹768

₹865

Correct Answer:

₹600

Explanation:

Sum of sales in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 = 4 ×16300 = 65200

Sum of sales in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019  = 4 × 18450 = 73800 

Sale  in 2019 = 9200

Sum of sales in 2016, 2017, 2018 = 73800 - 9200 = 64600

Sale in 2015 = 65200 - 64600 = 600
