The mean weight of a class of 34 students is 46.5 kg. If the weight of the teacher is included, the mean rises by 500 g. Find the weight of the teacher.
solution

Mean weight of 34 students = 46.5kg

Total weight of 34 students = 34×46.5 = 1581 kg

If the weight of a teacher is included then mean arises = 500gm = 0.5 kg

So new mean = 46.5 + 0.5 = 47kg

Total weight = 47×35 = 1645 kg

Weight of a teacher = 1645 – 1581 = 84kg

Hence the weight of a teacher is 64 kg.
