      The average marks of 55 students in a class were calculated

      as 72. However, there were errors in recording the marks of four students. The incorrect marks recorded were 84, 74, 70, and 88, but the actual marks of these students were 56, 32, 48, and 70, respectively. Find the correct average marks of the class.
      A 65 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 68 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 70 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 72 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Total marks obtained by students = 72 Γ— 55 = 3960
      Total misread marks = (84 + 74 + 70 + 88) – (56 + 32 + 48 + 70) = 110
      Desired Average = (3960 – 110)/55 = 70
