The average weight of a team of 10 players increases by 2.5 kg when two players weighing 58 kg and 62 kg are replaced by two new players. What is the average weight of these two new players?

Question

Accepted Answer

1. The total weight increase = team size × increase per player = $10	imes2.5=25$ kg.

2. Old two players weigh $58+62=120$ kg. So the two new players weigh $120+25=145$ kg.

3. Average of the two new players = $145/2=72.5$ kg. So the answer is **(b)**.
