Question

Karen recorded the numbers of people getting off her tram. The mean number for 10 stops is 6.3. After the tram stops at the 11th stop, the mean is 8. How many people got off the tram at the 11th stop?

Answer 1

32 people got off

Explanation:For the 10th stop, we can get the total number of people that have gotten off

Mathematically, this is the product of the mean and the number of stops

= 10 * 6.3 = 63 people

Now, for the 11th stop, the total becomes

11 * 8.6 = 94.6
