Solution

The correct option is C 105 cm

Jack has to choose a size that was sold the most i.e, we have to calculate the mode of this data.

SizeMonthly SalesFrequency of particular shirt Getting sold90 cm2+3+4+3=121295 cm5+6+2+3=1616100 cm18+10+19+13=6060105 cm16+18+14+20=6868110 cm10+8+11+7=3636115 cm1+2+1+4=88

Mode is the observation that occurs for most number of times or the observation whose frequency is the highest.

Here, 105 cm occurs for most of the times(60 times)
So, 105 cm is the mode of the data set.

Therefore, jack should choose to sell shirt size of 105 cm.
