    The average weight of 24 students of section A of a class is 58 kg whereas the average weight of 26 students of section B of the same class is 60.5 kg. Find the average weight of all the 50 students of the class.

    A)  57 kg          

    B)  58 kg

    C)  59kg          

    D)  59.3kg

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Here , \[{{n}_{1}}=24,\] \[{{n}_{2}}=26\,\,x=58\] and \[y=60.5\] \[\therefore \] Average weight of all the 50 students. \[=\frac{{{n}_{1}}x+{{n}_{2}}y}{{{n}_{1}}+{{n}_{2}}}=\frac{24\times 58+26\times 60.5}{24+26}\] \[=\frac{1392+1573}{50}=\frac{2965}{50}=59.3\,\,\text{kg}\]
