Given:

The weights of the family members are 40 kg, 49 kg, 56 kg, 66 kg, and 37 kg.

Formula used:

Average weight = (Sum of weights) / (Number of members)

Calculation:

Sum of weights = 40 + 49 + 56 + 66 + 37

⇒ Sum of weights = 248

Number of members = 5

Average weight = 248 / 5

⇒ Average weight = 49.6 kg

∴ The correct answer is option 2.
