Question
Find the mean of 75 numbers, if the mean of 45 of them is 18 and the mean of the remaining ones is 13.

Solution
Mean of 45 numbers = 18
⇒ Sum of 45 numbers = 18 x 45 = 810
Mean of remaining ( 75 - 45 ) 30 numbers = 13
⇒ Sum of remaining 30 numbers = 13 x 30 = 390
⇒ Sum of all the 75 numbers = 810 + 390 = 1200
⇒ Mean of all the 75 numbers = `1200/75` = 16

If `bar"X"` is the mean of n observations x1, x2, x3,..., xn then the mean of `x_1/"a", x_2/"a", x_3/"a",...,x_"n"/"a" "is" bar"X"/"a"`, where a is an non-zero number.
i.e., if each observation is divided by a non-zero number, then the mean is also divided by it.
