• Average gets reduced...
• 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(5)
• One thing is sure that average will reduce.
  But amount will not be clear due to insufficient data ! As average neither the relative nor the exact value of average age is given!
• 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
• insufficient data
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• avg reduces as the highest ages r elimanated from d sum......
  cant calculate v can just assume d ans since d data s insufficient
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• ans :: Less than 26 years.
  Please specify the average of the team with the captain and GK.
  Let there be N players in the team with average X.
  Now captain's age (let's say y+26) is > 26 years and GK's age is 26 years.
  Now
  X*N = Xremaining*(N-2) + 26 + y + 26
  X of remaining team = (X*N-52-y)/(N-2)
  Since captain was eldest of them all, assuming that he was not too old to play football, and GK is 26 years, we know that everyone else is younger than GK.
