here are five number cards 2 5 7 8 9 one of the cards was removed and the mean average of the remaining four cards is 6. which card is removed? you must show your working

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 5 number cards.

They are 2,5,7,8,9

Total of all numbers in the cards = 2+5+7+8+9= 31

One card is removed say with number x.

Now sum new would be =31-x   ..  i

Average of remaining 4 cards = 6

So sum of remaining 4 cards = 6(4) = 24 ... ii

i and ii represent the sum of remaining 4 cards. Hence they should be equal

31-x =24

Subtract 31 from both sides to get

-x=-7

Or x =7

i think is 3 and 6. this took me 10 min to think.hope to and hope that my answer is brainliest.(follow me )

the answer is. -82562234434584
