Question

Average age of 8 men is increased by 3 years when two of them whose age
e 30 and 34 years are replaced by 2 persons. What is the average age of the 2
persons?​

Answer 1

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question.

Total increase in age = 3×8=24 years

Sum of the age of persons = 30 + 34 = 64 yrs

If the age of new person same as replaced person then there would have been no change in average. But average age of 8 persons increased by 3 years  

∴ Average age of new person = (64+44)/2 = 44 yr
