Given:

Production data of Type A cars over the years 2016 to 2021 (as shown in the line graph).

Calculations:

Production of Type A cars in each year:

2016: 100 thousand

2017: 125 thousand

2018: 200 thousand

2019: 250 thousand

2020: 300 thousand

2021: 400 thousand

Calculate the average production:

⇒ Average production = (100 + 125 + 200 + 250 + 300 + 400) / 6

⇒ Average production = 1375 / 6

⇒ Average production ≈ 229.17 thousand

Years when the production was more than the average:

2018: 200 thousand (less than average)

2019: 250 thousand (more than average)

2020: 300 thousand (more than average)

2021: 400 thousand (more than average)

∴ The production of Type A cars was more than the average production in 3 years: 2019, 2020, and 2021.
