Solution : Given: The average of 11 results is 50. The average of the first 6 results is 49. The average of the last 6 results is 52. According to the question, The sum of 11 results = 50 × 11 = 550 The sum of the first 6 results = 49 × 6 = 294 The sum of the last 6 results = 52 × 6 = 312 So, the sixth result = sum of first 6 results + sum of last 6 results – sum of 11 results ⇒ The sixth result = 294 + 312 – 550 = 56 Hence, the correct answer is 56.
