Average


Average : It is defined as the ratio of Sum of all the Observations to the Number of Observations. 

Average = Sum of all the observations / No. of Observations

                                      

OR, Sum of all the observations = Average x No. of Observations


To Calculate the Average Speed of the journey To and Fro 

Going from A to B with the speed of  X kmph; 


Coming from B to A  with the speed of Y kmph.


                                   A                        X kmph  →                                  B

                                   ⧭━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⧭

                                                                 ←  Y kmph


                                                                       

    Average Speed during whole journey = 2(X * Y) /(X + Y)

                                                                       


To calculate the Average of the whole class

Where,  Slot A = Number of students = X

                           Average of Slot A     = M

and ,     Slot B = Number of students  = Y

                           Average of Slot B     = N


                                               XM + YN

 Average of whole Class =   ━━━━━     

                                                  X + Y


Weighted Average : 

                                       W₁X₁ + W₂X₂ + W₃X₃

Weighted Average  =  ━━━━━━━━━━━━

                                          W₁ + W₂ + W₃


Here, X₁ , X₂, X₃ and X₄ are the respective averages of W₁, W₂, W₃ and W₄.



Problems Based on Age :

When New Member is Added in the group

Case 1 : Average Age Increases

Age of New Member added = Previously given Age + ( Increase in average after new member added * Total members including new member )

Case 2 : Average Age Decreases

Age of New Member added = Previously given Age - ( Decrease in average after new member added * Total members including new member )


When a member of group is replaced by the another new member in the group

Case 1 : Average Age Increases

Age of New Member added = Age of Departed Member + ( Increase in average after new member added * Total members including new member )

Case 2 : Average Age Decreases

Age of New Member added = Age of Departed Member  - ( Decrease in average after new member added * Total members including new member )

KEY HIGHLIGHTS : 

                                                                                       

  • Average of N consecutive natural numbers

  • First + Last

  • =  ━━━━━━━ 

           2                                                                     

  • The Average of Odd no. of Observation in consecutive pattern  = MIDDLE TERM

Example : Calculate the average of  4, 8, 12, 16, 20

Sol : Average = Middle term = 12

  • The Average of Even no. of Observation in consecutive pattern  = Average of Middle two terms

Example : Calculate the Average of 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48

Sol : No. of terms = 8 (EVEN) 

                                           24 + 30               54 

                   Average =   ━━━━━━  =   ━━━ =  27

                                                            2                     2    

  • If each term of the observation is increased or decreased by K, the average eventually increases or decreases by K.

  • If the average of the two separate groups is known, then the combined average of the group can not be determined.

Digital Sum Balance (D.S.)

A single digit is obtained by adding all the digits of a number is called Digital Sum Balance (D.S.)   Ex :  12 → 1 + 2 → 3 24 → 2 + 4 → 6 21 → 2 + 1  → 3 9876 → 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 → 30 → 3 + 0 → 3 3452 → 3 + 4 + 5 + 2 → 14 → 1 + 4 → 5 Or,  On Dividing the digits by 9, the obtained Remainder is Digital Sum Balance.  Ex :    12    ━━ = 3                9      24 ━━━ = 6      9    3452 ━━━━ =  5      9 KEY HIGHLIGHTS : The range of D.S. always falls from 0 to 9. When we add 9 to a number, its Digital Sum will not change therefore in order to calculate Digital Sum we need to cancel out  all the 9’s.  9 + 1 → 10 → 1 9 + 2 → 11 → 2 9 + 3 → 12 → 3 9 + 4 → 13 → 4 9 + 5 → 14 → 5 9 + 6 → 15 → 6 9 + 7 → 16 → 7 9 + 8 → 17 → 8 9 + 9 → 18 → 9 Example : 123 45 → 6 → Digital Sum ...

Number System (Remainder Theorem of Numbers)

  Remainder Theorem of Numbers Remainder as a topic confuses the most. So  we, www.gyaanshalaa.blogspot.com , are trying our best to impart you the deepest knowledge and ample of questions to give you better understanding and clearing all your doubts.  Before going to the concept of Remainders, it is first required to have an idea about the basic terminologies related to it like Dividend, Divisor, Quotient and Remainder.   KEY HIGHLIGHTS : Always remember that on dividing a number by N , the range of remainders is always from 0 to (N - 1) . Remainder Theorem rule 1: Remainder of the expression can be expressed as Positive remainder and Negative remainder. But primarily, by definition remainders are always Non - Negative. Hence the final answer must be positive only. Just for the sake of simplification, we calculate the remainder in negative. But it has to be converted into positive while answering.  Method to convert Negative remainder into Positive remainder....
