let the calculated sum be x
x/20 = 12.5
x = 250

orignal sum = x+ 15 - ( -15) = x+ 30 = 280

mean = 280/20 = 14

please follow me

charmishaDr: once explain me original sum
sahuraj457: after removing the wrong observation i.e. -(-15) and adding correct observation i.e. +15 to x
charmishaDr: explain original sum pls clearly
