The average of four positive integers is 73.5. The highest integer is 108 and the lowest integer is 29. The difference between the remaining two integers is 15. Which of the following is the smaller of the remaining two integers ?
Answer: (e)
Sum of four integers = 73.5 × 4 = 294

The average salary of all the workers in a workshop is Rs. 8,000. The average salary of 7 technicians is Rs. 12,000 and the average salary of the rest is Rs. 6,000. The total number of workers in the workshop is
Answer: (b)
Let total number of workers be n
total salary of all workers = 8000 n
total salary of 7 technicians = 7 × 12000 = 84,000
total salary of remaining workers = (n – 7) × 6000
84000 + (n – 7) × 6000 = 8000 n
84 + 6n – 42 = 8n
42 = 2n ⇒ n = 21

Total age of 15 students of the class
= 15 × 19 =285
Total age of 20 students of the class
= 18.5 × 20=370
Total age of 5 new students
= 370 – 285 = 85 years
average age of new students = $85/5 = 17$ years
