6 persons standing in the queue for ROBERT movie are wearing different coloured shirts. All of them belong to different age groups. After two years, their average age will be 43. A seventh person joined with them, hence the current average age has become 45. Find the age of seventh person?
(a) 67
(b) 69
(c) 72
(d) 74
Read Solution (Total 14)
-
- ans is 69...
current age of 6 is 6*41= 246
when 7th person join group the age will be 7*45=315
so 7th person age 315-246=69
7th person is will be 69... - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(48) No(9)
- sry it is 69
- 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(2)
- i guess ans is 57
- 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(17)
- ans is 69.
- 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(1)
- 69 IS ANS

- 6 person present avg; 41, after 7th person join became 45.
difference 4
hence (6*4)+45=69 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(0)
- Total age of 6 persons is x,after two years total age of 6 persons is x+12
Average age of 6 persons is after two years is 43
So (x+12)/6=43,then solve x,
After 7th person is added then (x+7th person age)/7=45
So we will get 7th person age easily i.e. 69 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- x+2(6)/6=43 => x=258
now 246+y/7=45 => y=69
ag of that person is 69 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- a+b+C+d+e+F+12=(43*6)=258
a+b+c+d+e+f=246
a+b+c+d+e+f+g=(45*7)=315
315-258=69 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- ans is 57
because 6*43=258
and a person has joined
so,
7*45=315
age=315-258=57 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- after 2 year avg will be 43
so present avg =43-2=41
now let E6 is sum of all 6 person's age
ie E6=41*6=246
let 7th person's age is x
according to question (E6+x)/7=45
x=(45*7)-(246)
on solving x=69 ie ans - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let's assume A,B,C,D,E,F are the current ages of all 6 persons and since after two year average of ages will be : (A+B+C+D+E+F+2*6)/6 = 43(given) .........................eq(1)
and if seventh person get added then current average of ages will be : (A+B+C+D+E+F+G)/7 = 45 (given) ;G is age of seventh person.
put the value of eq(1) in above equation.....
(G+246)/7 = 45
G = 69 Ans. - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 67is write
- 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
