Correct Answer: 72600
Solution :
The total number of bats manufactured by company T is 550000.
Given that 45% of these are plastic bats.
So the number of wooden bats is 55% of the total.
The total number of wooden bats = 550000 × $\frac{55}{100}$ = 302500
The ratio of Brand A to Brand B wooden bats for company T is 6 : 19.
$\therefore$ The total number of Brand A wooden bats = 302500 × $\frac{6}{6+19}$ = 302500 × $\frac{6}{25}$ = 72600
Hence, the correct answer is 72600.
