Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Mean of 20 observations = 4
All the observations = 20 x 4 = 80
Largest observed value = 23
Remaining observation = 80 - 23 = 57
Mean of observation = 57/19 = 3
Mean of 20 observations = 4
All the observations = 20 x 4 = 80
Largest observed value = 23
Remaining observation = 80 - 23 = 57
Mean of observation = 57/19 = 3
