The mean of 20 numbers is 43. If 6 is subtracted from each of the numbers, what will be the new mean?
Please scroll down to see the correct answer and solution guide.
Right Answer is:
SOLUTION
Mean =(x1+x2------x20)/20
43={x1+x2-----x20}/20
43*20=860={x1+x2----x20)
If 6 is subtracted from 20 observations, it means that (20*6)is subtract from whole all observations
Mean ={(x1+x2-----x20)-120}/20
Mean =(860-120)/20
New mean =740/20
New mean =37
