Correct Answer: 2002 and 2007


Solution : From the given bar graph,
Production of salt in 2001 and 2003 = 40 + 70 = 110000 tonnes
Production of salt in 2006 and 2007 = 50 + 80 = 130000 tonnes
Production of salt in 2001 and 2005 = 40 + 55 = 95000 tonnes
Production of salt in 2002 and 2007 = 30 + 80 = 110000 tonnes
Production of salt in 2005 and 2006 = 55 + 50 = 105000 tonnes
⇒ The average production of salt in 2001 and 2003 is exactly equal to the average production of salt in 2002 and 2007.
Hence, the correct answer is 2002 and 2007.
