You can put this solution on YOUR website! Three quarters of the students running a 100_ yard race finished with an average time of 16 seconds. The remaing 25percent of students finished with an average time of 12seconds.what was the average time overall?
--------
Average time = (total time)/(total people) = ((3/4)x*16 + ((1/4)x*12) / x
------
= ((3/4)*16 + (1/4)*12) = 15 seconds
