1 Answer

Answer :

D)

Calculated mean of 8 articles = 15

Incorrect sum of these 8 articles = (15*8) = 120.

Correct sum of these 8 articles

= (incorrect sum) - (sum of incorrect articles) + (sum of actual articles)

= [120 - (20) + (30)]

= 130

Therefore, correct mean = 130/8 = 16.25

Hence, the correct mean is 16.25.
