The  average of the whole group is \frac{15}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of observations = 40

The average of the first 10  members is 4.5

Average = \frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{No. of observations}}

4.5=\frac{\text{Sum of first 10 observations}}{10}

45 = Sum of first 10 observations

The average of the remaining 30 members is 3.5.

So, 3.5 =\frac{\text{Sum of remaining 30}}{30}

105 = Sum of remaining 30

So, Total sum of 40 observations = 105+45 =150

Average of whole group = \frac{150}{40}=\frac{15}{4}

The  average of the whole group is \frac{15}{4}

So, Option C is true
