the mean of 50 observations was 39 . it was found later that an observation 48 was wrongly taken as 23 . the corrected new mean is
"sol . therefore correct sum = ( 39 × 50 + 48 – 23 ) = 1975 . therefore correct mean = 1975 / 50 = 39.5 . answer e"
divide(add(multiply(39, 50), subtract(subtract(50, const_2), 23)), 50)
