The mean score of 8 players in a basketball game was
14.5 points. If the highest individual score is
removed, the mean score of the remaining 7 players
becomes 12 points. What was the highest score?

Sagot :

Explanation:

Total score for the 8 players = 14.5 * 8 = 116

Total score for the remainding 7 players

= 12 * 7 = 84

Hence the highest score was 116 - 84 = 32.

SOLUTION:

▶️ the total score made by 8 players

= 14.5 × 8 = 116

▶️ total score of the remaining 7 players

= 12 × 7 = 84

▶️ total score of 8 players - total score of 7 players = 116 - 84 = 32

ANSWER:

32 is the highest score..
