Question:

If the average of n quantities is P and the average of m quantities is Q, then the average of (m + n) quantities is:

Options:

$\frac{nP+mQ}{m-n}$

$\frac{mP+nQ}{m+n}$

$\frac{nP+mQ}{P+Q}$

$\frac{nP+mQ}{m+n}$

Correct Answer:

$\frac{nP+mQ}{m+n}$

Explanation:

Sum of n quantities = nP

Sum of m quantities = mQ

Average of ( m + n ) = \(\frac{nP + mQ }{m + n }\)
