The mean temperature of Monday to Wednesday was 37^0 C and that of Tuesday to Thursday was 34^0 C. If the temperature on Thursday was (4/5)th that of Monday, what was the temperature on Thursday?
OPtion
1) 34^0 C
2) 35.5^0 C
3) 37.5^0 C
4) 37^0 C
5) 38.5^0 C
6) 38^0 C
7) 33^0 C
8) 33.5^0 C
9) 36.5^0 C
10)36^0 C
Solution
M+T+W = 3*7 = 111
T+W+Th = 3*34 = 102
On subtraction we get
(M-Th) = 9
or
M - 4/5 M = 9
So M = 45
Therefore
Th = 4/5 M = 4/5* 45 = 36^0 C
