Question : The average of three numbers of which the greatest is 16 is 12. If the smallest is half of the greatest, the remaining number is:

Option 1: 12

Option 2: 8

Option 3: 14

Option 4: 10

Let the third number be $z$.
Average = $\frac{\text{Sum of all the observations}}{{\text{Total number of observations}}}$
$⇒\frac{16+8+z}{3}=12$
$⇒24+z=36$
$\therefore z =12$
Hence, the correct answer is 12.
