Correct Answer: 76 kg


Solution : The weight of all the 25 students in the class = 25 x 50 = 1250 kg
When the weight of the teacher is included, the average weight increases by 1 kg.
The weight of 25 students + weight of the teacher = 26 x 51 = 1326 kg
Weight of the teacher = (1326 – 1250) = 76 kg
Hence, the correct answer is 76 kg.
