उत्तर
81
Explanation:
Mean of three numbers = 40 and lowest number = 19 ...[Given]
Let the three observations be 19, x and y, respectively.
∴ Mean = `"Sum of all observations"/"Total number of observations"`
⇒ `40 = (19 + x + y)/3` ...[∵ Mean = 40, given]
⇒ 3 × 40 = 19 + x + y
⇒ 120 = 19 + x + y
⇒ x + y = 120 – 19
⇒ x + y = 101 ...(i)
Since, 19 is the lowest observation.
Hence, for the highest possible value of the remaining two numbers, one must be 20.
Let x = 20
From equation (i), we get
20 + y = 101
⇒ y = 101 – 20
⇒ y = 81
