8 व्यक्तियों के एक समूह में, 5 पुरुषों और 3 महिलाओं ने औसतन ₹145 प्रत्येक खर्च किए। यदि पुरुषों का औसत खर्च ₹160 था, तो महिलाओं का औसत खर्च कितना था?

Options:

  • ₹100
  • ₹110
  • ₹120
  • ₹130
  • ₹100
  • ₹110
  • ₹120
  • ₹130

Correct Answer: c)

Explanation:

Total expenditure = \(8 \times 145 = ₹1,160\).
Men’s total expenditure = \(5 \times 160 = ₹800\).
Women’s total expenditure = \(1160 – 800 = ₹360\).
Average expenditure of women = \(\dfrac{360}{3} = ₹120\).

कुल खर्च = \(8 \times 145 = ₹1,160\)।
पुरुषों का कुल खर्च = \(5 \times 160 = ₹800\)।
महिलाओं का कुल खर्च = \(1160 – 800 = ₹360\)।
महिलाओं का औसत खर्च = \(\dfrac{360}{3} = ₹120\)।
