Contestants

In the competition, it was possible to get 0-5 points. Five of the 15 best contestants have earned 5 points or 4 points (which have won 10 contestants). The number of contestants who scored 3 points was the same as those who did not get any points. Calculate the number of contestants if the average result achieved in the competition was 2 points.

Final Answer:

n =  85

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 5+10+x+x 5 5+4 10+3x+0x=2n  n=15+2x 25+40+3x=2n  25+40+3(n15)/2=2n  25+40+3 (n15)/2=2 n  n=85
