Question

The average of 8 numbers is 48. Three of the numbers arw 50 52 and 56 what is the sun of the other 5 numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

Given the average of 8 numbers = 56.

Then the Total sum of 8 numbers = 56 * 8

                                                        = 448.

Sum of 1st three numbers = 49 + 57 + 72

                                           = 178.

So, the total = 448 - 178

                    = 270.

Average of the other 5 numbers = 270/5

                                                      = 54.

Verification:

178 + 270 = 448/8

                = 56.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

let the sum of number is x.

then x÷8=56

x=448

now remaining sum= 448-(49+57+72)

= 270

now avg. = 270÷5

= 54

there re 2 answer in answer and explation both are correct
