Re: There are 11 numbers in total, the sum of the least 6 numbers is 35, t [#permalink]

Sum of least 6 numbers = 35
Sum of greatest 6 numbers = 125

But, there are only 11 numbers. Sum of those 11 numbers = 142.

From this we can deduce that, the middle (median) number is counted twice. Hence,
Let x be the middle number.

35 + 125 -x = 142
x = 16.

Subtracting x because it is counted twice. Sum of least 6 + Sum of greatest 6 - middle = total sum
