Correct Answer: 5


Solution : We have,
The total production of flavour Q in 2008, 2009 and 2010 = 55 + 50 + 55 = 160 lakh bottles
The number of given years = 3
The average production of flavour Q in 2008, 2009 and 2010 = $\frac {160}{3}$ lakh bottles
The total production of flavour P in 2005, 2006 and 2007 = 50 + 40 + 55 = 145 lakh bottles
The number of given years = 3
The average production of flavours P in 2005, 2006 and 2007 = $\frac {145}{3}$ lakh bottle
Difference between the average production of flavour Q in 2008, 2009, and 2010 and that of flavour P in 2005, 2006, and 2007 = $\frac{160}{3}-\frac{145}{3}$ = $\frac{15}{3}$ = 5 lakh bottles
Hence, the correct answer is 5.
