Can be solved also with a weighted average regardless the %

24.7 -------------25.5------25.9

Must be B being closer to the women the overall average

Kinda 5 seconds approach

Sorry, can you please explain how this answer must be B? I thought that because 25.5 is closer to the aerage weight of all the women, the % of women is greater than the % of men. Beyond this, how can we comment anything else?

If 25.5 is closer to the RHS value in the weighted average then the answer is B

Vice versa would be A
