Question:

The average of 11 results is 50. If the average of first six results is 49 and that of the last six is 52, then find the sixth result.

Options:

45

56

76

36

Correct Answer:

56

Explanation:

                Average       ×         Numbers           =            Total

                     50            ×             11                =             550

First Six  →   49            ×              6                 =             294

Last Six  →   52            ×              6                 =             312  

So there is one extra number and that is sixth = (312 + 294) - 550 = 56
