The mean wieght of a class of 35 students is 45 kg. If the wieght of the teacher be included, the mean weight increases by 500 g. Find the weight of the teacher?
Explanation
Here we can use the formula
According to the question,
Sum of weight of 35 students (A=45, N=35)
⇒S=45 X 35 =1575
Later, wieght of the teacher included, the mean weight increases by 500 g. (so A=45.5, N=36)
So, sum of 35 students and a teacher is
⇒S=45.5 X 36 =1638
Now,
The weight of the teacher is =(sum of weight of 35 students)-(Sum of wieght of 35 students and a teacher is)
=1638-1575
=63 kg.
Hence, Option A is correct.
