the highest average is Rs. 136
Using the data from above question, the lowest average is Rs. 100.
We get the following table of earnings:
Persons | Win Total | Average |
P | 36 * 150 + 14 * 100 = 6800 | 136 |
Q | 34 * 150 + 21 * 100 = 7200 | 131 |
R | 23 * 150 + 36 * 100 = 6850 | 116 |
S | 30 * 150 + 30 * 100 = 6000 | 100 |
Now we can see that the largest difference
= Maximum – Minimum = Rs. 7500 – Rs. 6800
= Rs. 700
IITs = 60; IIMS = 40
