उत्तर

Mean = `"The sum of all observations"/"Total number of observations"`

∴ The sum of all observations = Mean x Total number of observations 

∴ The sum of 50 observations = 80 x 50

= 4000

Sum of observations after correction = 4000 + 19 – 91

= 3928 

∴ Corrected mean = `"Sum of observations after correction"/"Total number of observations"`

= `3928/50`

 = 78.56

∴ The corrected mean is 78.56.
