- D₹4,800
Step-by-Step Solution
All 15 stalls together pay = ₹15,000 a day. The two known groups pay = ₹4,800 and = ₹5,400, that is ₹10,200 between them, so the last five pay 15,000 - 10,200 = ₹4,800 between them, or 4800/5 = ₹960 each. ₹1,000 assumes an unknown group must sit at the overall average; it need not, and here the other ten stalls together run slightly above it. ₹1,050 is the midpoint of ₹1,200 and ₹900, which is not what the remaining stalls pay. ₹4,800 is the total for the five stalls, one division short of the answer.
Answer: B) ₹960
