Answer 1

The sum height of men and women is 139600 and 161000 inches respectively. Their mean height is 66.8 inches and the average of their mean is 67.1 inches.

Calculation of the sum and mean

Number of women =2500

Mean height of women = 64.4 inches

So, the total height of 2500 women = 64.4*2500 = 161000 inches

Number of men=2000

Mean height of men = 69.8 inches

So, the total height of 2000 men = 69.8*2000 = 139600 inches

Therefore, the sum height of all 4500 people = 161000+139600 =b

So, their mean height = 300600/ 4500 = 66.8 inches

The sum of mean height of men and women = 64.4 + 69.8 = 134.2 inches

Hence, The average of their mean = 134.2/ 2= 67.1 inches.
