Correct Answer: 42
Solution : The sum of the 20 numbers = 20 × 30 = 600 The sum of the other 30 numbers = 30 × 50 = 1500 The total sum of both sets of numbers = 600 + 1500 = 2100 Total numbers = 20 + 30 = 50 $\therefore \text{Average}=\frac{\text{Sum of all numbers in both of the set of numbers}}{{\text{Total numbers}}}=\frac{2100}{50} = 42$ Hence, the correct answer is 42.
