1)

The difference between average demand and average production of the five companies taken together is


A) 400

B) 280

C) 130

D) 620

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Total production of the five companies

= 1500 + 1800 + 1000 + 2200 + 2200 = 9200

Total demand of the five companies

= 3000 + 600 + 2500 + 1200 + 3300 = 10600

Required difference = $\frac{1}{5}$(10600 - 9200)

= 280
