  1. The mean of 20 items is 55. If two items 45 and 30 are removed, the new mean of the remaining items is
    1. 65.1
    2. 65.3
    3. 56.9
    4. 56
Correct Option: C

Here , The mean of 20 items = 55.
If two items 45 and 30 are removed, then

∴ Required average =
1025
18

Required average = 56.9
