Correct Answer: 25.6°C


Solution : Given: The mean high temperature of the first four days = 25°C
The mean of the last four days = 25.5°C
The mean temperature of the whole week = 25.2°C.
The temperature on the 4th day is given as,
(4 × 25 + 4 × 25.5 – 25.2 × 7)°C
= (100 + 102 – 176.4)°C
= 25.6°C
Hence, the correct answer is 25.6°C.
