Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 1 : 50.5 kg

Given

The average weight of 20 players = 40 kg

The average weight increased by 500 g if weight of coach is added.

Formula Used

Sum of observation = Average × Number of observations

Calculation

Average weight of 20 players = 40 kg

Total weight of 20 players = 40 × 20 = 800 kg

Average weight of 20 players and the coach = (40 + 0.5) kg = 40.5 kg

Total weight of 20 players and the coach = (40.5 × 21) kg = 850.5 kg

So, weight of the coach = 850.5 kg - 800 kg = 50.5 kg

∴ The weight of Coach is 50.5 kg.
