The weights (in kg) of five girls of a class are 49, 42, 61, 55 and 58. What is the average weight (in kg) of these five girls?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 53.
Given that
The total weight of five girls of a class = 49 + 42 + 61 + 55 + 58 = 265
Total number of girls = 5
Average = The total sum of the values/the total numbers of value
Now,
The required average = 265/5 = 53
