The mean of 100 items was found to be 30. If at the time of calculation two items were wrongly taken as 32 and 12 instead of 23 and 11, find the correct mean.
उत्तर
Here,
n = 100, X = 30.
So, `bar"X" = (1)/"n"(sumx_i)`
⇒ `sumx_i = "n"bar"X"`
⇒ `sumx_i` = 100 x 30 = 3000.
∴ Incorrect value of" `sumx_i` = 3000
Now, correct value of
`sumx_i = "Incorrect value of" sumx_i` - (Sum of incorrect values) + (Sum of correct values)
= 3000 - (32 + 12) + (23 + 11)
= 2290.
∴ Correct mean
= `("Correct value of" sumx_i)/"n"`
= `(2990)/(100)`
= 29.9.

If `bar"X"` is the mean of n observations x1, x2, x3,..., xn then the mean of `x_1/"a", x_2/"a", x_3/"a",...,x_"n"/"a" "is" bar"X"/"a"`, where a is an non-zero number.
i.e., if each observation is divided by a non-zero number, then the mean is also divided by it.
