      Question

      The average of a set of 's' numbers is 35. If 90 is

      added to the set, then the average of the set becomes 35.5. Find the value of '4 X (s - 15)'.
      A 376 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 350 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 390 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 380 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Sum of all 's' numbers = 35s
      ATQ:
      (35s + 90) / (s + 1) = 35.5
      Multiplying both sides by (s + 1):
      35s + 90 = 35.5(s + 1)

      35s + 90 = 35.5s + 35.5
      90 - 35.5 = 35.5s - 35s
      54.5 = 0.5s
      s = 109
      4 X (s - 15):
      4 X (109 - 15) = 4 X 94 = 376
