The mean of 6 observations is 12. Two observations are added to these and the new mean becomes 13. Mean of two new observations:A. 16B. 18C. 13D. 151. D2. B3. C4. A

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : A

Given:

The mean of 6 observations = 12

New mean after adding two observations = 13

Calculation:

Sum of 6 observations = 6 × 12 = 72

Total observations after adding two more observations = 8

Sum of 8 observations = 8 × 13 = 104

Sm of two new observations = Sum of 8 observations - sum of 6 observations

Sum of teo new observations = 104 - 72 = 32

Mean of the two observations = 32/2 = 16

∴ Mean of two new observations is 16.
