Question:

The average of D1 and D2 is 40. The average of D2 and D3 is 45. The average of D1 and D3 is 55. What is the value of D3 ?

Options:

45

55

50

60

Correct Answer:

60

Explanation:

Sum of D1  & D2   =   2 × 40 = 80

Sum of D2 & D3   = 2 × 45 = 90

Sum  of D1  & D3   = 2  × 55 = 110

By observing all ,

 2(D1  + D2  + D3)  = 110 + 90 + 80 = 280

D1  + D2  + D3 = 140

80 + D3  = 140

D3  = 60

So , Value of D3  is 60
