Two groups of readings are combined. The first group contains n readings with mean 24. The second group contains n + 4 readings with mean 32. The mean of all the recorded readings is 29. One reading in the first group was recorded as 38, but should have been 14. Work out the mean of all the readings after this error is corrected.
