Find the weighted mean of the following data: Value(x) = {10, 20}, Weight(w) = {2, 3}.

  • A.15
  • B.16
  • C.17
  • D.18

Answer: B

The formula for weighted mean is \(\frac{\sum(w_i x_i)}{\sum w_i}\).

\(\sum(w_i x_i) = (10 \times 2) + (20 \times 3) = 20 + 60 = 80\).

\(\sum w_i = 2 + 3 = 5\).

Weighted Mean = \(\frac{80}{5} = 16\).
