Correct Answer: 160


Solution : Number of trucks manufactured by K = $\frac{108}{360}$ × 1440 = 432
Number of trucks manufactured by P = $\frac{45}{360}$ × 1440 = 180
$\therefore$ Average number of trucks manufactured by K and P = $\frac{432+180}{2}$ = 306
Number of trucks manufactured by J = $\frac{55}{360}$ × 1440 = 220
Number of trucks manufactured by M = $\frac{18}{360}$ × 1440 = 72
$\therefore$ Average number of trucks manufactured by K and P = $\frac{220+72}{2}$ = 146
$\therefore$ Difference = 306 – 146 = 160
Hence, the correct answer is 160.
