Answer: D.3

Explanation:

Given : There were 138 people at a party and 414 finger sandwiches were eaten.

i.e. Number of sandwiches eaten by 138 people at the party = 414

Then the number of sandwiches eaten by each person at the party will be :_


(414)/(138)=3

Thus, each person consumed 3 sandwiches.

Hence D is the right answer.
