      Question

      The average of 9 scores is 45. If two new scores are added

      and their average is 'x', the overall average becomes 20% more than the previous average. Find the value of 'x'.
      A 72.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 56.1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 50.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 94.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Sum of 9 scores = 9 × 45 = 405

      New average of all the numbers = 45 × 1.2 = 54

      So, sum of 11 numbers = 54 × 11 = 594

      So, average of two new scores = (594 - 405) ÷ 2 = 94.5
