Question: The average of 5 numbers is 50. If the average of the first 3 numbers is 40, what is the average of the last 2 numbers?
Options:
Correct Answer: 70
Solution:
Total of 5 numbers = 5 * 50 = 250. Total of first 3 numbers = 3 * 40 = 120. Total of last 2 numbers = 250 - 120 = 130. Average of last 2 numbers = 130 / 2 = 65.
