  2. B

  3. C
    16.2
  4. D
    16.25

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

To find the combined average, we calculate the total score and divide it by the total number of students.
Total score of 12 girls = 12×16.5=198

Total score of 8 boys = 8×16=128

Total score of all students = 198+128=326

Total number of students = 12+8=20
