Correct Question:
The average weight of a class of 24 students is 35 kg. If the weight of the madam be included, the average rises by 400 g. The weight of the madam is
(a) 45 kg
(b) 42 kg
(c) 41 kg
(d) None of these
Answer:
45 kg
Explanation:
GIVEN:-
Average weight of 24 students = 35kg.
Average is increasing by 400g, if weight of madam is included.
TO FIND:
Weight of madam = ?
PROCEDURE:
Finding Total weight of students :-
>> Total weight of students = 24( Number of students ) × 35kg( Average weight of students)
>> Total Weight of students = 840 kg.
When madam is included, the total number of person become 1 + 24 = 25 people.
But, we have the additional weight in form of gram (units). We need to change grams into kilograms.
here we go,
Since, 1kg = 1000g
>> Weight of 25 persons = 25 × (35kg + 0.4kg)
>> Weight of 25 persons = 25 × (35.4kg)
>> Weight of 25 persons = 885kg
Now, finding the weight of madam:-
>> Madam's Weight = Total weight of students - Total weight of all
>> Madam's Weight = 885kg - 840kg
>> Madam's Weight = 45kg
Hence, Madam's weight is 45kg.
