Question : Directions: A health drink company prepares the drink in three flavours: P, Q, and R. The production of three flavours over six years has been expressed on a bar graph below. Study the graph and answer the question. Production of 3 different flavours of health drinks by the company in 6 years (in lakh bottles):
What is the difference between the average production of flavour Q in 2008, 2009, and 2010 and that of flavour P in 2005, 2006, and 2007 (in lakh bottles)?
Option 1: 50
Option 2: 0.5
Option 3: 5.5
Option 4: 5
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.
