Model Answer
(A) ₹ 5,000
Average income = (₹6,000 + ₹4,000 + ₹7,000 + ₹3,000) ÷ 4 = ₹20,000 ÷ 4 = ₹5,000
Explanation
Add all four incomes and divide by the number of families (4). The concept of average/per capita income is a key development indicator discussed in Chapter 1. The examiner expects the correct option with a simple one-line calculation shown as justification.
