Correct Answer: 64 : 73


Solution : Average = $\frac{\text{Sum of all the entries}}{\text{Total number of entries}}$
From the given graph,
⇒ Average production of Company O in the years 2019 - 2021 $=\frac{15+18+31}{3}=\frac{64}{3}$
And, Average production of Company M in the years 2019 - 2021 $=\frac{21+33+19}{3}=\frac{73}{3}$
⇒ Ratio $=\frac{64}{3}:\frac{73}{3}=64:73$
Hence, the correct answer is 64 : 73.
