The number of years, in which the production of bikes of type C is less than the average production of type A bikes over the
years is

Accepted Answer

Step 1: Calculate the average production of type A bikes over the years 2015 to 2018.

Production of A bikes:  
2015 = 157  
2016 = 194  
2017 = 271  
2018 = 290

Average production of A = (157 + 194 + 271 + 290) / 4 = 912 / 4 = 228

Step 2: Compare the production of type C bikes each year with the average production of type A (228).

Production of C bikes:  
2015 = 255 (greater than 228)  
2016 = 227 (less than 228)  
2017 = 213 (less than 228)  
2018 = 239 (greater than 228)

Step 3: Count the number of years where production of C is less than average production of A.

Years: 2016 and 2017 → 2 years

Step 4: The question asks for the number of years, so the answer is 2.

Note: The options are given in percentages, but since the question asks for the number of years, the correct interpretation is 2 years.
