119.9 V
108.0 V
115.7 V
339.4 V

@Jagdeep is right.

Vdc = Vm/pi for Half wave rectifier.

So Vdc = 169.7/ 3.14 = 0.318* 169.7 = 53.914 =~ 54.

And Vdc= 2Vm/pi for full wave rectifier So,

Vdc= (2*169.7)/ 3.14 = 107.9292 i.e. 108v.

For half wave: Vavg=Vp/pi.

54v = 169, 7/3, 14.

For full wave: Vavg=2Vp/pi.

= 2(169,7)/3, 14 = 108.

For half wave is = 169.7 and average voltage = 54.

= (54*2=108).

In the question they ask for two full wave's average peak value. So it will be 54*4=216. Am I correct?

169.7(54).
399.4(?),
?=54*399.4/169.7 = 108.0v.

Since the PIV of a half-wave is Vm and is the same 169.7V so finding the PIV of a full-wave will be 2Vm where Vm is 54v.

So, the solution becomes 2(54) = 108.0V.
