Question:

The given bar graph shows the data of the production of rice (in lakh tons) by three different countries P, Q and R over the years mentioned. Study the graph and answer the question that follows.

The average production for the five years is maximum for which country ?

 

Options:

Only Q

P and Q

P and R

Only R 

Correct Answer:

Only R 

Explanation:

Average production of P for five years = \(\frac{30 + 50 + 20 + 40 + 10 }{5}\)

= \(\frac{150}{5}\)  =  30

Average production of Q for all 5 years = \(\frac{20 + 40 + 30 + 50 + 30}{5}\)

= \(\frac{170}{5}\)  = 34

Average production of R for all five years = \(\frac{40 + 30 + 50 + 20 + 50}{5}\)

= \(\frac{190}{5}\) = 38

So , R has maximum production.
