D.

Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
Total earning in January = 925 × 31 = Rs. 28675
Earning of first 20 days = 881 × 20 = Rs. 17620
Earning of last 20 days = 915 × 20 = Rs. 18300
Earning of 12th January to 20th January = (17620 + 18300) - 28675
= 35920 - 28675
= Rs. 7245
∴ Average of earning of 12th January to 20th January
