A. 48 B. 50 C. 52 D. 56 Answer: Option DShow Answer
Solution(By Apex Team)
$\begin{array}{l}\text{Mean of 11 results =50}\\
\text{⇒ Sum of these 11 results =550}\\
\text{Sum of first six results }\\
=49\times6=294\\
\text{Sum of last six results }\\
=52\times6=312\\
\end{array}$
∴ Sixth result
= Sum of first six results + Sum of last six results − Sum of all 1 results
$=294+312-550=56$
