Detailed Solution

Given that there are 22 large buildings and 15 small buildings.
Each large building has 10 stories each, with 2 apartments on each floor.
So, the number of apartments in one building will be
=10×2 =20
Each small building consists of 12 floors with 3 apartments on each floor.
So, the number of apartments in one small building will be
=12×3 =36
We are also given that there are 15 small buildings and 22 large buildings. So, the total number of apartments can be found as shown below.
=36×15+20×22 =540+440 =980
Thus, the total number of apartments in the housing complex is 980.
Therefore, the correct option is 1.
