Answer: New Avg is 126
Step-by-step explanation:
Total avg.=18*124
=2232
wrong obs.=64 & 28
Avg without in correct nos.=2232-(64+28)
=2232-92
=2140
Corrected obs.=46 & 82
New total=2140+46+82
=2268
therefore,New Avg.=2268/18
126
Hope this helps you!
Let the sum of 18 observations be ‘x’
Then average of 18 observations = \(\frac{{sum\ of\ 18\ observations}}{{18}}\)
\(\Rightarrow 124 = \frac{x}{{18}}\)
⇒ x = 124 × 18
We get the sum as 124 × 18
It is given that the values 64 and 28 were wrongly entered as 46 and 82
Let the new sum be ‘y’
Then,
y = 124 × 18 – 46 – 82 + 64 + 28 (subtracting the wrong values and adding the correct values)
⇒ y = 124 × 18 – 36
∴ Correct average = \(\frac{{124 \times 18 - 36}}{{18}}\)
⇒ Correct average = 124 – 2
⇒ Correct average = 122
Hope it helps✨
Take care❤
