Problema Solution

The mean salary of five employees was $68000 before the highest paid employee got a $30000 raise, and the median was $65000.

Find the mean salary after the raise

Find the median salary after the raise.

Answer provided by our tutors

total salary before raise = 68000*5 = 340000

total salary after raise = 340000 + 30000 = 370000

mean after raise = 380000/5 = $74000

median = $65000

as there is no change in position of middle salary..median is unchanged..
