The dynamics of crowd behaviour are hard to study because usually people are not reliable witness of their own behaviour. Now consider 4 people standing in the queue of a supermarket. You want to predict their behaviour based on their age group. You get to know fro the supermarket records that their average age 3 years ago was 48 years. After a while, another person joins the queue and the present average of all the 5 is 46 years. The present age of the last person in the queue is:
Ans: 26 years

x=26 - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(23) No(1)
- present average age of 4 people is (48*4+4*3)/4=51
let age of 5th person is =x then
(51*4+x)/5=46 or
x=(46*5)-(51*4) = 26 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- ans is 204
