In a garden, the average height of 100 big trees and a Banyan tree is 3 meters. If the height of Banyan tree is not considered, then the average decreases by 2 meters. Find out the heigth of Banyan tree?
Explanation
Here we can use the formula
According to the question,
Sum of height of 100 big trees and a banyan tree (A=3, N=101)
⇒S=3 X 101 =303
Later, Height of the banyan tree is not consider, the average decreases by 2 meters. (so A=1, N=100)
So, sum of 100 big trees
⇒S=1 X 100 =100
Now,
The height of banyan tree =(sum of 7 observations)-(Sum of 6 observations)
=303-100
=203
Hence, Option A is correct.
