60 % of the Scholars in a college are Girls. The annual pocket money of each girl Scholar is Rs. 25,000 and Boy Scholar is Rs. 35,000. What is the average annual pocket money of all the scholars in the college together? Correct Answer 29000

Given :

60% of the total students are girls 

Average pocket money of girls is Rs. 25000 

Average pocket money of boys is Rs. 35000 

Formula used :

Average = (Total sum of all values of observation)/(Total number of observations)

Calculations :

Let the total number of students be 100 

Total girls = 60% of 100 = 60 

Total boys 40% of 100 = 40 

Total income of girls = 25000 × 60 = 1500000 

Total income of boys = 35000 × 40 = 1400000

Average of their income = (1500000 + 1400000)/100 

⇒ 2900000/100 

⇒ 29000 rupees 

∴ The average income of all students is Rs. 29000
