Correct Answer: X and Z


Solution : According to the question,
Total production of company X over 5 years = 30 + 45 + 25 + 50 + 40 = 190
Average production over 5 years = $\frac{190}{5}$ = 38 cars
Total production of company Y over 5 years = 25 + 35 + 35 + 40 + 50 = 185
Average production over 5 years = $\frac{185}{5}$ = 37 cars
Total production of company Z over 5 years = 35 + 40 + 45 + 35 + 35 = 190
Average production over 5 years = $\frac{190}{5}$ = 38 cars
∴ The average production for 5 years was the maximum for X and Z companies.
Hence, the correct answer is X and Z.
