प्रश्न

A class consists of 50 students out of which 30 are girls. The mean of marks scored by girls in a test is 73 (out of 100) and that of boys is 71. Determine the mean score of the whole class.

योग

उत्तर

Given, the number of girls out of 50 students = 30

∴ The number of boys out of 50 students = 50 – 30 = 20

Now, the marks obtained by 30 girls = 30 × 73 = 2190 and the marks obtained by 20 boys = 20 × 71 = 1420  ...[Mean of marks scored by girls in a test is 73 and that of boys is 71]

∴ Mean score of the whole class

= `("Marks obtained by 30 girls" + "Marks obtained by 20 girls")/("Number of girls" + "Number of boys")`

= `(2190 + 1420)/(20 + 30)`

= `3610/50`

= 72.2

Hence, the mean score of whole class is 72.2.
