Question

the average of five numbers is 26 two of the numbers are 24 and 25 what is the average of the other three numbers​

Answer 1

Let the numbers be a,b,c,d and e.

average=(a+b+c+d+e)/5=26(given)

two numbers are 24 and 25

Let a=24 and b=25 then

(24+25+c+d+e)/5=26

c+d+e=26*5-(24+25)=81

But we need c+d+e/3 which is 81/3=27

Hence the avg of other three numbers is=27.

Hope it helps✌
