  1. Out of 20 boys, 6 are each of 1 m 15 cm height, 8 are of 1 m 10 cm and rest of 1 m 12 cm. The average height of all of them is
    1. 1 m 12.1 cm
    2. 1 m 21.1 cm
    3. 1 m 21 cm
    4. 1 m 12 cm
Correct Option: A

We can find the required average height with the help of given formula ,
Here, n1 = 6 , a1 = 1.15 m ,
n2 = 8 , a2 = 1.10 m , n2 = 6 , a2 = 1.12 m

∴ Average height =
n1a1 + n2a2 + n3a3
n1 + n2 + n3

Average height =
6 × 1.15 + 8 × 1.1 + 6 × 1.12
20

Average height =
6.9 + 8.8 + 6.72
20

Average height =
22.42
20

Average height = 1 meter 12.1 m
