a) 32 years
b) 24 years
c) 48 years
d) 44 years
Answer »Answer: (d)

Answer »Answer: (a)
Required average age = $({20 × 15 + 25 × 24}/{20 + 25})$years

= $(900/45)$ years = 20 years
Question : 33 [SSC SO 2003]
There are 30 students in a class. The average age of first 10 students is 12.5 years. The average age of the remaining 20 students is 13.1 years. The average age (in years) of the students of the whole class is
a) 12.7 years
b) 12.5 years
c) 12.9 years
d) 12.8 years
Answer »Answer: (c)
Using Rule 10,
( If the average of 'n1 ’ numbers is a1 and the average of 'n2 ’ numbers is a2 , then average of total numbers n1 and n2 is
Average = ${n_1a_1 + n_2a_2}/{n_1 + n_2}$ )
Average age = ${10 × 12.5 + 20 × 13.1}/{10+20}$
= ${125+262}/30$ =12.9 years
Question : 34
The average age of 30 boys in a class is 15 years. One boy, aged 20 years, left the class, but two new boys came in his place whose age differ by 5 years. If the average age of all the boys now in the class becomes 15 years, the age of the younger newcomer is :
a) 15 years
b) 20 years
c) 8 years
d) 10 years
Answer »Answer: (a)
Total age of 30 boys = 30 × 15 = 450 years
One boy, aged 20 years, left the class
Now, total age of 29 boys = 450 – 20 = 430 years
Again, two new boys join the class
Then, the total age of 31 boys = 15 × 31 = 465 years
∴ Age of two new boys = 465 – 430 = 35 years
Let the individual age of two boys be x and y years
∴ x + y = 35
x – y = 5 (According to the question)
∴ 2x = 40
x = $40/2$ = 20 years
∴ y = 15 years
∴ Age of the younger new comer = 15 years
Question : 35
The average age of a family of 10 members is 20 years. If the age of the youngest member of the family is 10 years, then the average age of the members of the family just before the birth of the youngest member was approximately
a) 12.5 years
b) 27.14 years
c) 11$1/9$ years
d) 14.28 years
Answer »Answer: (c)
Sum of the present age of 10 members
= 20 × 10 = 200 years
Total age of 9 members, 10 years ago = 100 years
Required average = $100/9$ =11$1/9$ years
