mean and the standard deviation of 25 observations are 60 and 3 respectively later on it was decided to Om it and derivation which was correctly recorded as 50 calculate the mean and standard deviation of remaining 24 observations

Given,
- The mean of 25 observations is 60.
- The standard deviation of 25 observations is 3.
To find,
The mean and standard deviation after one observation of 50 is removed.
Solution,
The formula for mean is ∑ where n is the number of observations.
The formula for standard deviation is where X is the mean.
Now, as one observation is omitted,
Sum of all observation = Mean*number of observations = 1500.
Removing the observation of 50, new sum = 1500 - 50 = 1450.
The total number of observations now is 24.
New mean =
Similarly, we find the new sum of the square of observations.
Standard deviation =
Removing the square of 50 from the sum of squares = 90225 - 2500
= 87725
New standard deviation =
=
Therefore, the new standard deviation is 2.414, and the new mean is 60.41.
