For the 19 readable scores: $Mean=\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}+x_{12}+x_{13}+x_{14}+x_{15}+x_{16}+x_{17}+x_{18}+x_{19}}{19}=84$ $x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}+x_{12}+x_{13}+x_{14}+x_{15}+x_{16}+x_{17}+x_{18}+x_{19}=19\times84=1596$ With the unreadable score: $Mean=\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}+x_{12}+x_{13}+x_{14}+x_{15}+x_{16}+x_{17}+x_{18}+x_{19}+x_{unreadable}}{20}=82$ $1596+x_{unreadable}=20\times82=1640$ $x_{unreadable}=1640-1596=44$
