Q75 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2021 (25 Aug Shift 1) · Mathematics
The mean marks of 25 boys in a class is 61 and the mean marks of 35 girls in the same class is 58 . Then, the mean of all 60 students is
- A56.25
- Correct answerB59.25
- C57.25
- D63.25
Solution
Number of boys $=25$
Mean marks of boys $=61$
Number of girls $=35$
Mean marks of girls $=58$
Total mean of all 60 students $=\frac{61 \times 25+35 \times 58}{60}$
$$
=\frac{1525+2030}{60}=\frac{3555}{60}=59.25
$$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
