Answer is D

Total revenue over the 10 day period: 400 * 10 = 4000
Total rev for first 6 days: 360*6 = 2160
Total revenue for the next 4 days = 4000 -2160 = 1840

Therefore, Avg revenue for the next 4 days = 1840/4 = 460
Thanks!

We can also solve this through the balanced scale concept.

The overall average is $400.

The first 6 days' average is $360. So, on each of these 6 days, we are short $40 from the average (400-360). Thus, we have to make up 6*$40 = $240.

So, we have to "spread" an extra $240 across the last 4 days. That's an extra 240/4 = $60 beyond $400. And, 60 + 400 = 460.
