What is the difference between the average number of students that appeared for the scholarship examination from all the given colleges, and the average number of students that qualified from all the colleges together? |
920 940 930 910 |
920 |
Average number of students appeared for the scholarship exam from all colleges = \(\frac{2800+1800+3000+2000+2400 }{5}\) = \(\frac{ 12000 }{5}\) = 2400 Average number of students qualified for the scholarship exam from all colleges = \(\frac{1400+1000+1800+1600+1600 }{5}\) = \(\frac{ 7400}{5}\) = 1480 Required difference = 2400 - 1480 = 920
