There are 3 sets of natural numbers 1 ot 100. Set A contains all the natural numbers which are prime, upto 100. Set B contains all the non-prime even natural numbers upto 100. Set C contains all the non-prime odd natural numbers upto 100 i.e.,
A = {2,3,5,7,11,...89, 97}
B = {4,6,8,10,12,...98,100}
C = {1,9,15,21,25,27,33,95,99}

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will first identify the elements of each set and then calculate the average of Set B before and after transferring 10 elements from Set A. ### Step 1: Identify the Elements of Each Set - **Set A** (Prime numbers up to 100): A = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97} - **Set B** (Non-prime even numbers up to 100): B = {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 62, 64, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74, 76, 78, 80, 82, 84, 86, 88, 90, 92, 94, 96, 98, 100} - **Set C** (Non-prime odd numbers up to 100): C = {1, 9, 15, 21, 25, 27, 33, 35, 39, 45, 49, 51, 55, 57, 63, 65, 69, 77, 81, 83, 85, 87, 91, 93, 95, 99} ### Step 2: Calculate the Average of Set B To find the average of Set B, we need to calculate the sum of its elements and divide by the number of elements. - **Number of elements in Set B**: There are 49 elements in Set B. - **Sum of elements in Set B**: We can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series: \[ S_n = \frac{n}{2} \times (2a + (n-1)d) \] where: - \( n = 49 \) (number of terms) - \( a = 4 \) (first term) - \( d = 2 \) (common difference) Plugging in the values: \[ S_{49} = \frac{49}{2} \times (2 \times 4 + (49 - 1) \times 2) = \frac{49}{2} \times (8 + 96) = \frac{49}{2} \times 104 = 49 \times 52 = 2548 \] - **Average of Set B**: \[ \text{Average} = \frac{\text{Sum of elements}}{\text{Number of elements}} = \frac{2548}{49} \approx 52 \] ### Step 3: Transfer 10 Elements from Set A to Set B Assuming we transfer the smallest 10 prime numbers from Set A to Set B: - Transferred Elements: {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29} ### Step 4: Calculate the New Average of Set B - **New Number of Elements in Set B**: \( 49 + 10 = 59 \) - **New Sum of Elements in Set B**: Original sum of Set B is 2548. The sum of transferred elements is: \[ 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 = 129 \] New sum: \[ 2548 + 129 = 2677 \] - **New Average of Set B**: \[ \text{New Average} = \frac{2677}{59} \approx 45.37 \] ### Conclusion The average of Set B decreases from approximately 52 to approximately 45.37 after transferring 10 elements from Set A.
