Answer:

85.7

Explanation:

Given that two sections of a class took the same quiz. Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students who had a mean score of 90.

Section A total score = 15*80=1200

Section B total score 20*90 = 1800

Overall total score=3000

Overall total students = 15+20 =35

Hence overall mean =
(3000)/(35) \\=85.7143

rounding off to one decimal place

overall mean = 85.7
