Well... Every week the factory is "required" to make a set amount of racing bikes and mountain bikes (250 our of the total 450). So The remaining 200 bikes can be of any type

The maximum will be when those 200 bikes are racing bikes, and the minimum will be when the company doesn't make any extra one beside the ones that it delivers to shops

Using this logic, the minimun will be $11200 and the max will be $21200, so the answer is B :)
