Correct answer
1680
Why this answer is correct
Calculation:
Table 1:
| Country | Production | Export | Import | Consumption |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Afghanistan | 2100 | 600 | 400 | 1900 |
| Bangladesh | 1400 | 400 | 300 | 1300 |
| Bhutan | 2000 | 800 | 400 | 1600 |
| India | 2200 | 600 | 500 | 2100 |
| Maldives | 700 | 500 | 1300 | 1500 |
The average consumption of crude oil in each of the five countries in 2020 = (1900 + 1300 + 1600 + 2100 + 1500)/5 = 8400/5 = 1680
