Mean of 100 items is 49. It was discovered that three items which should have been 60, 70, 80 were
wrongly read as 40, 20, 50 respectively. The correct mean is
(a) 48
(b) 49
(c) 50
(d) 60
Answer
(c) Sum of 100 observations
= 100 × 49 = 4900
Correct sum
= 4900 – 40 + 20 + 50 ] + [60 + 70 + 80] = 5000
∴ Correct mean = 5000100 = 50.

(3) The median of set of 9 distinct observations is 20.5. If each of the largest 4
observations of the set is increased by 2, then the median of the new set
(a) is increased by 2
(b) is decreased by 2
(c) is two times of the original number
(d) Remains the same as that of the original set.
Answer
(d) No. of observations = 9
∴ median = 5th observation
∵ The largest four observations are increased
∴ 5th observation remains unchanged.
