Given:-

  • Average age of 5 boys = 13 years where one more boy joins in 5 boys
  • Average age of 6 boys = 12 years

To Find:-

  • What was the age of the last boy who joins ?

Solution:-

Let the ages of 6 boys be A,B,C,D,E,F

Then,

  • Average age of 5 boys = 13 years

➤ A+B+C+D+E / 5 = 13

➤ A+B+C+D+E = 13 × 5

➤ A+B+C+D+E = 65 years

Now, Average age of 6 boys is 12 years

➤ A+B+C+D+E+F/6 = 12

➤ A+B+C+D+E+F = 12 × 6

A+B+C+D+E+F = 72 years

Subtracting the average age of 5 boys with average age of 6 boys,to find the age of last boy

➤ F = 72 - 65

F = 7 years

Therefore,

  • The age of last boy = F = 7 years
