Question

There are 35 students in a class. Fifteen of them are men and 20 of them are women. The mean height of the men is 69.65 inches, and the mean height of all 35 students is 66.85 inches. What is the mean height of the women?​

Answer 1

Answer:

64.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The total heights of men is m

so m/15 = 69.65 => m = 1044.75

The total heights of all students is s

so s/35 = 66.85 => s = 2339.75

so the total heights of women = 2339.75 - 1044.75 = 1295

The mean height of women = 1295/20 = 64.75
