Question 55
The arithmetic mean of all the distinct numbers that can be obtained by rearranging the digits in 1421, including itself, is
Solution
The number of 4-digit numbers possible using 1,1,2, and 4 is $$\frac{4!}{2!}=12$$
Number of 1's, 2's and 4's in units digits will be in the ratio 2:1:1, i.e. 6 1's, 3 2's and 3 4's.
Sum = 6(1) + 3(2) + 3(4) = 24
Similarly, in tens digit, hundreds digit and thousands digit as well.
Therefore, sum = 24 + 24(10) + 24(100) + 24(1000) = 24(1111)
Mean = $$\frac{24\left(1111\right)}{12}=2222$$
The answer is option A.
