Given that :-

Sum of 20 numbers is 9

To find

Sum of these numbers after increasing each number by 0.03

Solution :-

→ We have to increase each number by 0.03. It means that we have to add 20 times 0.03.

→ So the increase in sum of number will be 20(0.03)

→ 20(0.03) = 0.6

→ Earlier sum was 9.

After increase oof 0.6 new sum is 9+0.6

Answer is 9.6
