Directions: Study the following table carefully and answer the given question. The quantities (in kilograms) of various eatables supplied by Food Corporation of India reported in different states in the year to various ration depots in a month. State Rice Wheat Bajra Sugar Vegetable oil PUNJAB 50 90 40 85 60 HARYANA 65 82 54 90 64 DELHI 80 87 50 90 63 RAJASTHAN 70 70 45 80 65 AP 75 75 46 82 62 HP 72 80 50 88 70 MP 69 85 44 82 70 GUJARAT 64 86 47 83 60

Find the approximate average of rice and sugar supplied in all the eight states together.

First, sum the rice supplied across all eight states: 50 plus 65 plus 80 plus 70 plus 75 plus 72 plus 69 plus 64 equals 545 kilograms. Next, sum the sugar supplied: 85 plus 90 plus 90 plus 80 plus 82 plus 88 plus 82 plus 83 equals 680 kilograms. The combined sum of rice and sugar is 545 plus 680, which equals 1225 kilograms. Using the average formula, divide this total by 8 to get 1225 divided by 8, resulting in 153.125 kilograms.
