Question 65

The average daily production of toys in a factory in the month of December is 512. If the average production during first 20 days is 515 and that of the last 13 days is 510, then what is the average of production on 19 and 20 December?

Solution

The average daily production of toys in a factory in the month of December is 512.

Total production of toys in the month of December = 512 x 31 = 15872........(1)

The average production during first 20 days is 515.

Total production during first 20 days = 515 x 20 = 10300

Production during first 18 days + 19 December + 20 December = 10300........(2)

The average production during last 13 days is 510.

Total production during last 13 days = 510 x 13 = 6630

19 December + 20 December + Production during last 11 days = 6630........(3)

Solving (2) + (3) - (1), we get

19 December + 20 December = 10300 +  6630 - 15872

19 December + 20 December = 1058

Total production on 19 and 20 December = 1058

Average of production on 19 and 20 December = $$\frac{1058}{2}$$ = 529

Hence, the correct answer is Option C
