Question

Answer 1

Hey there!

Let the height of the boy, who left the class be x cm.

Average height of 20 boys = 150 cm.

Total height of 20 boys/20 = 150

Total height of 20 boys = 3000

Avg. height of 19 boys = 150-0.5
= 149.5

Total height of 20 boys-Boys who left/19 = 149.5

Total height of 20 boys - x = 149.5 × 19

3000 - x = 2840.5

x = 159.5

Hence, height of the boy who left is 159.5 cm.
