Read Solution (Total 6)
-
- Ans 20 yrs
sol: avg age of 5 person after 5 yrs will be 50 yrs..
so total age of 5 person = 50*5=250
and total age of 6 person = 45*6=270
so age of 6th person= 270-250= 20 yrs - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(48) No(5)
- Total initial age=45*5=225
after 5 years total age of 6 will be = 225+25+K
where K is age of 6th person
so
(250+k)/6=45
solving.....k=20 yrs - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(22) No(3)
- after 5 years avg age of 5 persons=(45+5)=50
sum of ages of 5=50*5=250
after one more person joined sum is=250+x
avg age of 6 persons=(250+x)/6=45
age of 6th person is=20years

5 members the average age is 45 years=5*45=225
After 5 years =250
After 5 years 6th person joined the average age is again 45 years=6*45=270
age of 6th person=270-250=20

- right now avg. age is 45*5=225
after 5 yrs avg. age will be (225+10+x)/6=45 (x is age of the 6th person)
on solving x=35
hence 35 is the answer - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(29)
