Correct Answer: 130


Solution : Given: 19 natural numbers.
Sum of first n natural numbers = $\frac{\text{n(n+1)(2n+1)}}{6}$
Sum of first 19 natural numbers = $\frac{\text{19(19+1)(2×19+1)}}{6}$ = $\frac{\text{14820}}{6}$ = 2470
Average of these numbers = $\frac{\text{Sum of first 19 natural numbers}}{19}$ = $\frac{\text{2470}}{19}$ = 130
Hence, the correct answer is 130.
