By formula,
Mean =
Given,
Mean weight of 60 students of a class = 52.75 kg
Total weight = 60 × 52.75
= 3165 kg.
Mean weight of 25 students among them = 51 kg.
So, the total weight of 25 students = 51 × 25 = 1275 kg.
Remaining students = 60 – 25 = 35
Total weight of remaining 35 students = 3165 – 1275 = 1890 kg
Mean weight of 35 students = = 54 kg.
Hence, the mean weight of the remaining students is 54 kg.
