stack sum straight x with straight i below equals 4050 space which space is space incorrect
end style
 
Later on, it was discovered that two items were misread
as 26 and 19 instead of 62 and 09 respectively.
 
Hence, correct begin mathsize 16px style sum for straight i of straight x equals 4050 minus 26 minus 19 plus 62 plus 9 equals 4076 end style
Correct mean = 4076/90 = 45.28 ≈ 45.3
