Average (mean) = (sum of all the data) / (# of data)
sum of all the data = (average)(# of data)
Thus for 100 students with an average of 93,
sum of all data = (93)(100) = 9300
and for 300 students with an average of 75,
sum of all data = (75)(300) = 22500
Therefore you would expect the overall average to be
(9300 + 22500) / (100 + 300) = 79.5 %
Now if there are x # of advanced students and y # of regular students, then
x + y = 90 (total # of students) and 93x + 75y = 87(x + y) (overall average)
The second equation can be simplified to x - 2y = 0
Subtracting the two equations yields
x = 60 and y = 90
Therefore you would need 60 advanced and 30 regular students.
Well 12 inches is a foot so 24inches is 2 feet so there is a hint so 90 divided by 12 and there is part of it

Answer:
£18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = original price of the game
Increase in price = 1/2
New price = £27
x + 1/2x = £27
2x+x/2 = 27
3/2x = 27
x = 27 ÷ 3/2
= 27 × 2/3
= 54 / 3
x = £18
Therefore, the original price of the game is £18
