The average of eight numbers is 14. The average of six of these numbers is 16. The average of the remaining two numbers is:
8
Total sum of 8 numbers = \(8 \times 14 = 112\)
Sum of 6 numbers = \(6 \times 16 = 96\)
Sum of remaining two numbers = \(112 - 96 = 16\)
Average of remaining two numbers = \(\frac{16}{2} = 8\)
Hence, the correct answer is 8.
