Q. from where did the encircled 16 came from? kindly explain
The mean of 5 numbers is 18. If one numbers is excluded , their mean is 16. Find the excluded number.
 

Dear student
We have,Mean of 4 numbers=90-a4    ...(1)Now, it is given that if one number is excluded out of 5 numbers, then themean of remaining 4 numbers is 16.So, (1) becomes 16=90-a464=90-aa=90-64a=26
