The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

The task requires an analysis of ratings provided by five restaurants to five workers under specified constraints. The objective is to determine the number of workers who received a rating of 4 from Restaurant R2.
  1. Data Overview:
    UllasVasuWamanXavierYusuf
    Mean rating2.23.83.43.62.6
    Median rating24443
    Model rating24551 and 4
    Range of rating33443
    • Restaurant Means: R1 = 3.4, R2 = 2.2, R3 = 3.8, R4 = 2.8, R5 = 3.4.
  2. Condition Analysis:
    • R2 assigned a rating of 5 to Xavier and Waman. (Note: Waman's ratings are from R1 and Xavier's from R2 and R3).
    • R2 assigned a rating of 1 to Waman and Yusuf.
    • Identified R2 Ratings: Xavier received 5; Waman and Yusuf received 1.
  3. Calculation of Missing Values:
    • R2's mean rating is 2.2. Assume R2's five ratings are a, 1, 5, 1, 1.
    • The equation for the mean is: (a + 1 + 5 + 1 + 1)/5 = 2.2. This simplifies to 7 + a = 11, yielding a = 4. However, based on the available information, a rating of 4 is not required for 'a' by R2.
  4. Conclusion: Restaurant R2 did not assign a rating of 4 to any worker. Answer: 0
