In a certain training program, Class A has $15$ participants with an average score of $80$ on a final exam, and Class B has $25$ participants with an average score of $88$ on the same exam. What is the average score for all $40$ participants combined?

Cevap: 85 points

Cevap

The combined average score for all 40 participants is 85.

To find the combined average of two groups of different sizes, sum the total values of both groups (

15 \times 80 + 25 \times 88 = 3,400

) and divide by the total number of participants (

15 + 25 = 40

). This gives a weighted average of

85
