We have 7 months with 31 days (1,3,5,7,8,10,12) and 12 months in a year => Median is 31
Because there are months with fewer than 31 days, median > mean
=> B
Because there are months with fewer than 31 days, median > mean
=> B

In a year with 365 days, the mean value of the number of days per month is 365 ÷ 12 ≈ 30.42.
The median value of the number of days per month is 30 because most months have either 30 or 31 days, and the middle value when arranged in order is 30.
Since 30.42 (the mean) is greater than 30 (the median), Quantity B is greater than Quantity A.
