Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 32

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \text{MA}_1 = \frac{15+24+18}{3} = \frac{57}{3} = 19 \) \( \text{MA}_2 = \frac{24+18+33}{3} = \frac{75}{3} = 25 \) \( \text{MA}_3 = \frac{18+33+42}{3} = \frac{93}{3} = 31 \) The computed averages are 19, 25, 31. The average not computed is 32.
