Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The total export for the five years = 10.4 + 13 + 15.6 + 21.6 + 18.8 = 79.4 lakh tons of rice
$\therefore$ The average yearly export = $\frac{79.4}{5}$ = 15.88 lakh tons of rice per year.
The exports were less than the average in three years: 2010, 2011, and 2012.
$\therefore$ The export of rice was less than the average export in 3 years.
Hence, the correct answer is 3.
