A. $420
B. $440
C. $450
D. $460
E. $480
Average revenue in 10 days = $400
Total revenue in 10 days = $400*10 = $4000
Average revenue in first 6 days = $360
Total revenue in first 6 days = $360*6 = $2160
Therefore, total revenue in last 4 days = $4000 - $ 2160 = $1840
Therefore, average daily revenue in last 4 days = $1840/4 = $460.
The correct answer is D.
