- 45 is answer..
five years ago age is 45..so we can change to present after 5 years every person has increase on year..so is becomes 50 ..
soo,,50*4(persons)=200..
after e is adding now avg is 49 so 49*5(persons)=245..
e age is 245-200=45.. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(10) No(0)
- a+b+c+d-(5*4)=45*4
a+b+c+d=180+20=200
a+b+c+d+e=245
(200)+e=245
e=45
answer is c) - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(0)
- A-5+B-5+C-5+D-5/4=45
A+B+C+D=200
A+B+C+D+E/5=49
A+B+C+D+E=245
E=245-200=45 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(0)
- the average age of a,b,c,d after 5yrs is 45(bcs after 5yrs age of every person will be increased by 5,so average will be same )
the total age=45*4=200
now a+b+c+d+e=(49*5)=245
then e=245-200=45years - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(4)
- 45 is answer
five years before (a-5 + b-5 + c-5 + d-5) / 4 = 45
=>a+b+c+d = 200
after "e" joined later(now) ---> (a+b+c+d+e)/5 = 49
(a+b+c+d+e) = 245
=>e= 245 - (a+b+c+d)
e = 245 - 200
e = 45 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- (a+b+c+d)/4=45
after 5 years: (a+b+c+d)/4=45+(20/4)
(a+b+c+d)/4=50
a+b+c+d=200
now (a+b+c+d+e)/5=49
(a+b+c+d)/5+e/5=49
200/5+e/5=49
40+e/5=49
e/5=9
e=45
c)45 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- c. 45 year
5 year ago : a+b+c+d=4*45=180
now : 180 + 5*4 + e =49*5 = 245
e = 45 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- answer is 65 years
a+b+c+d=45*4=180
now a+b+c+d+e=49*5=245
from above 2 equation
180+e=245
e=65 yrs
i think - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(5)
- answer is 65 years
same as above asnswer

- average age of 4 person is 45
so total age of 4 persons is= 4*45=180
after joining E persons become 45 and average becomes 49.
so total age of 5 persons become 5*49=245
Therefore, the age of E becomes= 245-190=65 years

- A+B+C+D=45*4
SUM=180
A+B+C+D+E=49*5
NEW SUM=245
NEW SUM-SUM=65=AGE OF E - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- 49*5-(45*4+5*4)=45

- 5 years ago.......
A+B+C+D=45*4=180;
AFTER FIVE YEARS....
A+B+C+D=180+20=200;
NOW
A+B+C+D+E=49*5=245
200+E=245
E=45; - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- sum of age of first 4 before 5 years= 45*4=180
increase in age of 4 in 5 years=4*5=20
total age of 4 after 5 year=180+20=200
age after joining of e=49*5=245
age of e=(age of four-age of all 5)=245-200=45 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- a+b+c+d-(5*4)=45*4
a+b+c+d=180+20=200
a+b+c+d+e=245
(200)+e=245
e=45
answer is c) - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
