Concept tested : average, excess-shortage
Question type : Double 'if'
Difference between 20 more marks and 4 more marks is :
20 - 4 = 16
With 16 more marks, the average goes up by : 80 - 78 = 2
Since the average increases by 2, every student got 2 marks more if we considered the total number of marks to be divided equally among them.
Number of students including Jacob = 16 ÷ 2 = 8
