Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to calculate the sum (x) of the original numbers as shown below:
mean = sum (x)/20 numbers
25 = x/20
x = 500
So, the sum of all 20 numbers was 500.
Now, in removing 4 from each of the 20 numbers, we can determine how much the total number will be.
20 x 4 = 80
Remove this from the previous total:
500 - 80 = 420
Now, we have a new total (420) with the same amount of numbers (20), so we can determine a new average as:
Mean = sum/numbers
mean = 420/20
mean = 21
