Hence, total money spent

Given, x =

18 x 98
Then,

19x + 76 = 18x + 98
x = 22
Thus, average after 19th innings

(2) According to the question,
Total weight of 45 students
= 45 52 = 2340 kgs
Total weight of 5 students who leave
= 5 48 = 240 kgs
Total weight of 5 students who join
= 5 54 = 270 kgs
Hence, new total weight of 45 students
= 2340 - 240 + 270 = 2370
x + y = 2000 - 1824
x + y = 176
and x - y = 172
Solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
x = 174
