Total cost= Fixed cost + variable cost*quantity produced

1. Fixed cost= $500

Variable cost=$20

Average total cost=$25

Average total cost= Total cost/ Quantity produced

Let 'x' quantity is produced.

25=Total cost/x=(Fixed cost + variable cost*x)/x

25=(500+20*x)/x

5x=500

x=100

The Framing gallery is producing 100 posters. Therefore, option (c) is correct.

2. Total cost of producing ice-cream 100 sundaed is $500.

Fixed cost of production=$200

Marginal cost of producing 100th sundae is the variable cost.

Let the variable cost be y

500=200+100y

y=3

Therefore, option (b) is correct.
