Explanation

For consecutive odd numbers with average 53 (7 numbers): The middle (4th) number is 53. Numbers are 47, 49, 51, 53, 55, 57, 59. Largest = 59. For consecutive odd numbers with average 56 (6 numbers): Average lies between 3rd and 4th numbers. Numbers are 51, 53, 55, 57, 59, 61. Largest = 61. Quantity II (61) > Quantity I (59). This confirms answer C is correct. The topic as 'Number Series' is appropriate.
