Correct Answer: 108
Solution : Given: The average of 15 results is 52. The average of the first 8 results is 56 and that of the last 8 results is 55. $\text{Average}=\frac{\text{Sum of all values}}{\text{Total number of values}}$ The value of the 8th result = (8 × 56 + 8 × 55) – 15 × 52. = 448 + 440 – 780 = 888 – 780 = 108 Hence, the correct answer is 108.
