100 अंकों की एक परीक्षा में 50 विद्यार्थियों द्वारा प्राप्त अंकों का औसत 65 पाया गया। बाद में यह ज्ञात होता हैं कि 88 के प्राप्ताकं को गलती से 68 पढ़ लिया गया था। सही औसत ज्ञात कीजिए ?
Detailed Solution & Logic
65.40
Given average = 65
Number of students = 50
Total marks (wrong) = $ 65 \times 50 = 3250 $
Wrong entry= 68, Correct entry = 88
Difference = 88 - 68 = 20
Correct total marks = 3250 + 20 = 3270
Correct average = $ \frac{3270}{50} = 65.4 $
Answer = 65.4
