Hey Mate !

Given,

Mean of 16 numbers = 10

mean = sum of all observations / Number of observations

let the sum of all observations be x

10 = x/16

160 = x

When 2 is added to every number then total sum is,

= 160 +( 16 × 2 )

= 160 + 32

= 192

New mean = 192/16

= 12

Therefore,

New mean = 12

Solution:-

Mean :- Mean can be define as the Ratio of Sum of Observations to the Total Number of Observations.

Given:-

Mean of 16 Number = 10.

Let the Sum of 16 Numbers be "x".

=) 10 = x / 16

=) x = 160

Therefore, Sum of 16 Numbers is 160.

A.T.Q.

If 2 is added to all the 16 Numbers.

=) 160 + Total Number × 2

=) 160 + 16 × 2

=) 160 + 32

=) 192.

192 is the Sum of all New 16 Numbers.

Now,

=) Mean = 192/16

=) Mean = 12.

Hence,

If 2 is added to every number,then new mean will be 12.
