87 + 95 + 130 = 88 + 95 + 129 = 312

$$Average = \frac{Total}{3}$$

Therefore, the there two quantities are equal(Option C)

Here,
No calculation is required,

Compare the values in QTY A i.e. 87 , 95 and 130

QTY B = 88 , 95 , 129

As it can be seen that 88 is 1 up to 87 and 129 is one down 130. The middle term 95 remains the same.

Hence both QTY A and QTY B will have same AM
