Correct Answer :

Option D

360

Solution :

The correct answer is 360.

To find the total number of passengers in the aircrafts of airlines A and C together, we calculate the total number of passengers for airline A and airline C separately using the given data and then add them together.

Step 1: Calculate the total number of passengers in Airline A
From the table, for Airline A:
Total aircrafts = 20
Average number of passengers in each aircraft = 12

Total passengers in Airline A = Total aircrafts Ă— Average passengers per aircraft

Total passengers in A = 20 Ă— 12 = 240

Step 2: Calculate the total number of passengers in Airline C
From the table, for Airline C:
Total aircrafts = 15
Average number of passengers in each aircraft = 8

Total passengers in Airline C = Total aircrafts Ă— Average passengers per aircraft

Total passengers in C = 15 Ă— 8 = 120

Step 3: Calculate the combined total of passengers in Airlines A & C

Total passengers in A and C together = 240 + 120 = 360

Therefore, the total number of passengers in the aircrafts of airlines A and C together is 360.
