Answer: B

The multiples of 1010 lying between 22 and 198198 are:

10,20,30,…,19010, 20, 30, \dots, 190

These numbers form an Arithmetic Progression (AP) where:

  • First term (aa) = 1010
  • Last term (ll) = 190190
  • Common difference (dd) = 1010

For any Arithmetic Progression, the average of all the terms is equal to the average of the first and the last term:

Average=First term+Last term2\text{Average} = \frac{\text{First term} + \text{Last term}}{2}

Average=10+1902=2002=100\text{Average} = \frac{10 + 190}{2} = \frac{200}{2} = 100

Therefore, the correct option is B.
