    Average

    The average of six numbers is x and the average of three of these is y. If the average of the remaining three is z, then :

    ক)
    x = y + z
    খ)
    2x = y + z
    গ)
    3x = 2y - 2z
    ঘ)
    none of these

    Explanation

    Total of all 6 numbers = 6 × x = 6x Total of the first 3 numbers = 3 × y = 3y Total of the remaining 3 numbers = 3 × z = 3z So, 6x = 3y + 3z Now divide both sides by 3: 2x = y + z
