      Question

      The average of six numbers is 54. When two more numbers are

      included, the average increases by 3. Find the average of the numbers included.
      A 60 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 63 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 66 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 69 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Sum of the 6 numbers = 54 × 6 = 324
      New average = 54 + 3 = 57
      Sum of 8 numbers = 57 × 8 = 456
      Sum of new 2 numbers = 456 - 324 = 132
      Required average = 132 ÷ 2 = 66
