The average height of 5 boys is 175 cm. A sixth boy joined the group and the average height of all the boys in the group now increased by 1 cm. The height of the sixth boy is:
The average height of 5 boys = 175 cm
Average = sum of all terms/number of terms
Sum of the height of 5 boys = 175 $$\times$$ 5 = 875
Average height after joining of 6th boys = 175 + 1 = 176
Sum of the height of 6 boys = 176 $$\times$$ 6 = 1056
Height of 6th boy = 1056 - 875 = 181 cm
