Question : 1

The average age of 24 boys and their teacher is 15 years. When the teacher’s age is excluded, the average age decreases by 1 year. The age of the teacher is

a) 39 years

b) 38 years

c) 41 years

d) 40 years

Answer: (a)

The age of the teacher

= (24 + 1) × 15 – 24 × (15 – 1)

= 25 × 15 – 24 × 14

= 375 – 336 = 39 years.

Question : 2

The average age of A and B is 20 years. If A is to be replaced by C, the average would be 19 years. The average age of C and A is 21 years. The ages of A, B and C in order (in years) are

a) 18, 20, 22

b) 18, 22, 20

c) 22, 20, 18

d) 22, 18, 20

Answer: (d)

A + B = 2 × 20 = 40

C + B = 2 × 19 = 38

C + A = 2 × 21 = 42

On adding all three,

2 (A + B + C) = 40 + 38 + 42 = 120

⇒ A + B + C = 60

∴ A = (A + B + C) – (B + C)

= 60 – 38 = 22 years

B = (A + B + C) – (A + C)

= 60 – 42 = 18 years

C = (A + B + C) – (A + B)

= 60 – 40 = 20 years

Question : 3

The average age of a husband and his wife was 23 years at the beginning of their marriage. After five years they have a one-year old child. The average age of the family of three, when the child was born, was

a) 24 years

b) 23 years

c) 20 years

d) 18 years

Answer: (d)

After five years of marriage,

Husband + wife + child

= 46 + 10 + 1 = 57 years

At the time of birth of child,

Husband + wife + child = 57 – 3 = 54 years

∴ Required average age = $54/3$ = 18 years
