Suppose that the mean score of a class of 35 students was 76.
\n" ); document.write( " The 20 male students in the class had a mean score of 60.
\n" ); document.write( " What was the mean score for the 15 female students?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let m = mean score of the girls
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28%2820%2860%29%2B15m%29%29%2F35\" = 76
\n" ); document.write( "do the math and multiply both sides by 35
\n" ); document.write( "1200 + 15m = 2660
\n" ); document.write( "15m = 2660 - 1200
\n" ); document.write( "m = 1460/15
\n" ); document.write( "m = 97\"1%2F3\" is the average of the girls
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
