a) 1 $1/2$ year
b) 1 year
c) 3 years
d) 2 years
Answer »Answer: (d)
Present age of child
= 17 × 6 – (17 × 5 + 3 × 5)
= 102 – (85 + 15) = 102 – 100
= 2 years
Question : 42 [SSC CHSL 2011]
Five years ago, the average age of P and Q was 25. The average age of P, Q and R today is 25. Age of R after 5 years will be
a) 20 years
b) 15 years
c) 35 years
d) 40 years
Answer »Answer: (a)
Sum of the present age of P and Q.
= 2 × 25 + 10 = 60 years
Sum of the present age of P, Q and R
= 25 × 3 = 75 years
∴ R’s present age = 75 – 60 = 15 years
∴ R’s age after 5 years = 20 years
Question : 43
In a class, there are 40 boys and their average age is 16 years. One boy, aged 17 years, leaving the class and another joining, the average age becomes 15.875 years. The age of the new boy is :
a) 14.5 years
b) 12 years
c) 17 years
d) 15 years
Answer »Answer: (b)
Total age of 40 boys = 40 × 16 = 640 years
New total age of 40 boys = 40 × 15.875 = 635 years
∴ Age of new boy = [635 – (640–17)] = 12 years
Aliter : Using Rule 23,
Here, n = 40, x = 16 – 15.875, x = 0.125
Age of new boy = Age of replaced boy–xn
= 17 – 0.125 × 40
= 17 – 5 = 12 years
Question : 44
The average age of 30 students is 9 years. If the age of their teacher is included, the average age becomes 10 years. The age of the teacher (in years) is
a) 31
b) 27
c) 40
d) 35
Answer »Answer: (c)
Total age of 30 students = 9 × 30 = 270 years
Total age of 30 students and a teacher = 31×10 = 310 years
∴ Age of the teacher = 310 – 270 = 40 years
Question : 45
The average age of 12 players of a team is 25 years. If the captain’s age is included, the average age increases by 1 year. The age of the captain is :
a) 38 yrs.
b) 25 yrs.
c) 26 yrs.
d) 36 yrs.
Answer »Answer: (a)
Total age of 12 players = 12 × 25 = 300
Total age including captain = 13 × 26 = 338
∴ Age of the captain = 338 – 300 = 38 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 = 1, n = 12
Age of the captain = Average + x (n + 1)
= 25 + 1 (12 + 1) = 38 years
