Question

A simple random sample of weights of 59 green candies has a mean of 0.8635 g.

Answer 1

This is a question of simple statistics portion.

We are told about the random sample of weights of 59 candies in terms of Mean.

So we have here

Total number of candies = 59

Mean weight = 0.8635 g

We know that

Mean Weight = Total Weight / Number of candies

0.8635          =  Total weight / 59

(0.8635)(59) = Total Weight

50.9465 g    = Total weight

So

Total weight = 50.9465 g
