ATQ, Sum of 20 numbers = 75 × 20 ⇒ 1500 Sum of first 12 numbers = 80 × 12 ⇒ 960 Sum of last 11 numbers = 11 × 68 ⇒ 748 Let the 12th number be x Sum of 20 numbers = Sum of first 12 numbers + Sum of last 11 numbers - 12th number ⇒ 1500 = 960 + 748 - x ⇒ 1500 = 1708 - x ⇒ x = 1708 - 1500 ⇒ x = 208 Sum of remaining numbers = 1500 - 208 ⇒ 1292 Remaining numbers = 19 Average of remaining numbers = 1292 / 19 ⇒ 68
