Question : 6 [SSC CGL Tier-I 2010]
In a family, the average age of a father and a mother is 35 years. The average age of the father, mother and their only son is 27 years. What is the age of the son ?
a) 11 years
b) 12 years
c) 10 years
d) 10.5 years
Answer »Answer: (a)
Father + mother = 2 × 35 = 70 years
Father + mother + son = 27 × 3 = 81 years
∴ Son’s age = 81 – 70 = 11 years
Question : 7
The average age of 8 men is increased by 2 years when two of them whose age are 21 and 23 years replaced by two new men. The average age of the two new men is
a) 24 years
b) 22 years
c) 30 years
d) 28 years
Answer »Answer: (c)
Overall increase in the total age = 8 × 2 = 16 years
∴ Total age of two new men = 21 + 23 + 16 = 60 years
∴ Average age of new men = $60/2$ = 30 years
Aliter : Using Rule 23,
( If in a group, one member is replaced by a new member, then,
Age of new member = ( age of replaced member) ± xn
where, x = increase (+) or decrease (–) in average n = Number of members. )
Here, x = 2, n = 8
Age of new person = Age of replaced person + x
= 24 + 2 × 8
= 24 + 16 = 40 years
Question : 8 [SSC CGL Tier-I 2013]

a) 29 years
b) 30 years
c) 24 years
d) 25 years
Answer »Answer: (b)
Sum of the present age of family members = 33 × 5 = 165 years 9 years ago,
Sum of their age = 165 – 9 × 5 = 120 years
∴ Required average age = $120/4$ = 30 years

a) 34 years
b) 36 years
c) 28 years
d) 30 years
Answer »Answer: (a)
Teacher’s age
= 16 × 10 – 19 × 4 – 5 × 10
= 160 – 76 – 50 = 34 years
Question : 10 [SSC CGL Tier-II 2012]
In a school with 600 students, the average age of the boys is 12 years and that of the girls is 11 years. If the average age of the school is 11 years and 9 months, then the number of girls in the school is
a) 150
b) 450
c) 350
d) 250
Answer »Answer: (a)
Number of girls = x
Number of boys = 600 – x
∴ (600 – x ) × 12 + 11x
= 11$3/4$×600 = $47/4$ × 600
⇒ 7200 – 12x + 11x = 7050
⇒ x = 7200 – 7050 = 150
