Since the month begins with a Sunday, So there will be five Sundays in the month
= ( 610 x 5 + 340 x 25 ) / 30
= 3050 + 8500 / 30
= 11550 / 30 = 385.

  1. 2x = 2y + 2z
  2. x = 2y + 2z
  3. x = y + z
  4. 2x = y + z

Answer: Option (D)
How to Solve
Here we have x is average of three of these is y so, 3y and average of the remaining three is z so,
x = 3y + 3z / 6
x= 3 ( y + z ) / 6
x = ( y + z ) / 2
2x = y + z.

Example #5
The average marks of first 54 group members is 62 and second 62 group members is 65 and third 48 group members is 70 respectively. Then, what would be the average marks of all the students?

  1. 55.95
  2. 55.47
  3. 65.47
  4. 62.47

Answer: Option (C)
How to Solve
Step 1: At First we find the total students marks according with 3 group
= ( 54 x 62 ) + ( 62 x 65 ) + ( 48 x 70 ) = ( 3348 + 4030 + 3360 ) = 10738.
Step 2: Now we need to find average marks of all three groups.
Total groups members are = ( 54 + 62 + 48 ) = 164.
Average marks of all the students = 10738 / 164 = 65.47.
