2 53.6 - 58.5 53.55 - 58.55 2
3 58.6 - 63.5 58.55 - 63.55 1
4 63.6 - 68.5 63.55 - 68.55 5
5 68.6 - 73.5 68.55 - 73.55 6
6 73.6 - 78.5 73.55 - 78.55 6

the following set of values:
Mean
9, 11, 14, 15, 26, 27, 29, 8, 27, 20, 7 (Total 11)
SUM = 193
MEAN = 193/11 = 17.54

Question: 3
Ali got 84, 93, and 88 scores in the Business Finance test. There is one more
test during the semester. He wants to obtain an average of 90. How much he
score in the fourth test to obtain an average of 90?
Formula
x1 +x2 + x3 + x4 / 4 = Average
Solution
(84 + 93 +88 + x) / 4 = 90
(84 + 93 +88 + x) = 90 * 4
265+ x = 360
x = 360 265
x = 95 Ali should take 95
Verification
(84 + 93 + 88 + 95) / 4 = 90
360 / 4 = 90
