Final answer:

The number of friends in the group is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of friends in the group, we need to divide the total number of cards by the average number of cards each friend has.

The total number of cards in all collections is 1316 and the average number of cards in each collection is 94.

Therefore, the number of friends in the group is 1316 / 94 = 14 friends. So, the correct answer is option c) 14.
