21.)
It is given that
Mean of 31 results = 60
So the total sum = 31 (60) = 1860
We know that
Mean of first 16 results = 58
So the total sum = 16 (58) = 928
Mean of last 16 results = 62 So the total sum = 16 (62) = 992
We get the 16th result total sum of first 16 results + total sum of last 16 results - total sum of 31 results
By substituting the values
16th result = 928 +992 - 1860
On further calculation
16th result = 1920 - 1860 = 60
Therefore, the 16th result is 60.
22.)
It is given that
Mean of 11 numbers = 42
So the total sum 42 (11) = 462
Mean of first 6 numbers = 37
So the total sum = 37 (6) = 222
Mean of last 6 numbers = 46
So the total sum = 6 (46) = 276
We know that
6th number = total sum of last 6 numbers + total sum of first 6 numbers - total sum of 11 numbers
By substituting the values
6th number = 276 + 222 - 462
So we get
6th number = 498 – 462 = 36
Therefore, the 6th number is 36.
