Answer :
- Highest observation = 50
- Lowest observation = 20
Given :
- The ratio of the lowest and highest observation is 2 : 5
- The range is 30
To find:
- Highest and lowest observation
Solution :
Given,
The ratio of the lowest and highest observation is 2 : 5 so,
- Let the lowest observation be 2x
- Let the highest observation be 5x
We know that
- Range = Highest observation - lowest observation
➞ 30 = 5x - 2x
➞ 30 = 3x
➞ 3x = 30
➞ x = 30/3
➞ x = 10
Finding the highest and lowest observation :
➞ Highest observation = 5x = 5(10) = 50
➞ Lowest observation = 2x = 2(10) = 20
Hence,
- Highest observation = 50
- Lowest observation = 20
Verification :
➞ 30 = 5x - 2x
➞ 30 = 5(10) - 2(10)
➞ 30 = 50 - 20
➞ 30 = 30
Hence , Verified
