If 4 the boys who actually obtained 5,12,15 and 19 marks had not been sent up, the average marks would have been 44.
Find the number of boys.

let b = no. of boys
:
Find the total marks of those 4 boys
5+12+15+19 = 51
the equation = 39
44b - 176 + 51 = 39b
44b - 125 = 39b
44b = 39b = 125
5b = 125
b = 125/5
b = 25 boys
