Given: Average of 11 numbers = 30   Step 1: Calculate total of 11 numbers by multiplying it by average value 30 = 11 x 30 = 330   Step 2: Calculate total of first six members by multiplying it by average value 17.5 = 17.5 x 6 = 105   Step 3: Calculate total of last six members by multiplying it by average value 42.5 = 42.5 x 6 = 255   Therefore, we can find sixth number by adding value of first six and last six numbers and subtracting it from the total value of 11 numbers.   Sixth number =(105 + 255)- 330=
