Answer: Option 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The arithmetic mean of the marks of a group of students in a test is 63. 30% of them had a mean score of 70. 15% of them had a mean score of 41.
Find:
The mean score of the remaining 55% students.
Solution:
Let us assume that there are 100 students in a group.
63 was the arithmetic mean of all students = 63 × 100= 6300
70 was the arithmetic mean of 30 students = 70 × 30= 2100
41 was the arithmetic mean of 15 students = 41 × 15= 615
Therefore, the mean score of the remaining 55 students
= 6300 - (2100+615)/55
= 6300-2715/55
= 3585/55
= 65.18
Answer:
The mean score of the remaining 55% is 65.18
