Practice Test Discussion

Q)

The average marks in physics lab of a class of students is 55. If the marks of two students were 28 and 25 ofthe actual marks 45 and 50 respectively, then what would be the correct average?


  • Explanation

    According to the question

    Sum of the added quantities - Sum of removed quantities= ±Nx

    ⇒(45+50)-(28+25)=±42×x

    ⇒ 95-53= 42×x

    ⇒ x=2020=1

    ∴ The correct average= 55+1 =56

    Hence, Option D is correct.
