the average weight of 8 persons increases by 1.5 kg . if a person weighing 65 kg is replaced by a new person , what could be the weight of the new person ?
"total weight increases = 8 Γ— 1.5 = 12 kg so the weight of new person = 65 + 12 = 77 kg answer b"

the speed at which a man can row a boat in still water is 26 kmph . if he rows downstream , where the speed of current is 4 kmph , what time will he take to cover 150 metres ?
speed of the boat downstream = 26 + 4 = 30 kmph = 30 * 5 / 18 = 8.33 m / s hence time taken to cover 150 m = 150 / 8.33 = 18 seconds . answer : a

a mathematics teacher tabulated the marks secured by 35 students of 8 th class . the average of their marks was 72 . if the marks secured by reema was written as 35 instead of 99 then find the correct average marks up to two decimal places .
"total marks = 35 x 72 = 2520 corrected total marks = 2520 - 35 + 99 = 2584 correct average = 2584 / 35 = 73.82 answer : e"
