The average of 11 numbers is 36, whereas average of 9 of them is 34. If the remaining two numbers are in the ratio of 2 : 3, find the value of the smaller number (between remaining two numbers).
-
- 45
- 48
- 54
- 36
Correct Option: D
According to the question,
Sum of remaining two numbers
= 11 × 36 – 9 × 34
= 396 – 306 = 90
Ratio of the remaining two numbers = 2 : 3
∴ Smaller number = | × 90 = 36 | |
