@Kushagra Sahni – is it the sum of squares of observations divided by no. of observations

@Kaustubh Miglani – ( a + b + c + d ) 2 = a 2 + b 2 + c 2 + d 2 + 2 ( a b + a c + a d + b c + b d + c d )

It is easy to see that a 2 + b 2 + c 2 + d 2 = 1 0 0
By Q M − A M , we have that 4 a 2 + b 2 + c 2 + d 2 ≥ 4 a + b + c + d
However they are equal. Equality holds when a = b = c = d = 5 and this is the only solution.
