For the given five values $15,24,18,33,42$, the three years moving averages are |
$19,22,33$ $19,25,31$ $19,30,31$ $19,25,33$ |
$19,25,31$ |
The correct answer is Option (2) → $19,25,31$ Given values $15,\;24,\;18,\;33,\;42$ Three year moving averages are calculated as follows First moving average $=\frac{15+24+18}{3}=\frac{57}{3}=19$ Second moving average $=\frac{24+18+33}{3}=\frac{75}{3}=25$ Third moving average $=\frac{18+33+42}{3}=\frac{93}{3}=31$ The three years moving averages are $19,\;25,\;31$. |
