Answer:
13.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean score for 12 boys = 12
which means, (Total score of 12 boys)/12 = 12
or the Total score of the 12 boys = 12×12 = 144
Mean score for 17 girls = 15
which means, (Total score of 17 girls)/17 = 15
or the Total score of the 17 girls = 17×15 = 255
The mean score for the whole class =
(Total score of the students)/(Total number of students)
= (144+255)/(12+17) = 399/29 = 13.75
