A student obtained 60, 75 and 85 marks respectively in 3 monthly examinations in physics and 95 marks in the final examination. The 3 monthly examinations are of equal weightage whereas the final examination is weighted . What is his average mark physics? Correct Answer 82
Correct option is C)We have,x1 = 60 x2 =75x3 = 85 x4 = 95 w1 = 1w2 = 1 w3 = 1 and w4 = 2∴ xw¯=w1x1+w2x2+w3x3+ w4x4w1+w2+w3+w4⇒ xw¯=(1×60)+(1×75)+(1×85)+ (2×95)1+1+1+2⇒ xw¯=4105∴ xw¯=82
