Correct Answer: 62.5
Solution : Average = $\frac{\text{Sum of values}}{\text{Number of values}}$ ⇒ $\frac{P1 + P2 + P3}{3}$ = 50 ⇒ P1 + P2 + P3 = 150 Since P1 is half of the average, P1 = 25 ⇒ 25 + P2 + P3 = 150 ⇒ P2 + P3 = 125 Now, the average of P2 and P3 = $\frac{P2 + P3}{2}$ = $\frac{125}{2}$ = 62.5 Hence, the correct answer is 62.5.
