 We know,
       Sum of observations/ no of observations =mean
        Given,
      No of observations=20 and mean is 7
   So, sum of observations =140
   If      Each observation is multiplied with 3  and then 5 is added then , sum of observations=425
         No of observations =21 then mean=20.2
