उत्तर

Arithmetic mean = `"Sum of all observations"/"Number of observations"`

85 = `"Sum of 15 observations"/15`

85 × 15 = sum of 15 observations

1275 = sum of 15 observations

Wrong observation = 73

Correct observation = 28

∴ Correct Mean = `"Sum − Wrong value + Correct value"/"Number of observations"`

= `(1275 - 73 + 28)/15`

= `(1202 + 28)/15`

= `1230/15`

= 82

Correct mean = 82
