Question

the sum of 16 numbers is 240.The average of 6 of those numbers is 10. the average of the remaining numbers is

Answer 1

18

Explanation:

If the average of 6 numbers is 10, then the sum of those 6 numbers is:

6 x 10 = 60

To calculate the sum of the remaining 10 numbers, subtract 60 from the total sum of all the numbers:

240 - 60 = 180

Therefore, the average of the 10 remaining numbers:

180 ÷ 10 = 18
