Answer:
Average is the sum of the data values divided by the total number of data values.
Let the 7 persons ages be x1,x2,x3,x4,x5,x6,x7
Given that average of 5 persons is 31
⟹31=5x1+x2+x3+x4+x5
⟹x1+x2+x3+x4+x5=31×5=155 ------(1)
Given that average of all the 7 persons ages is 30
⟹30=7x1+x2+x3+x4+x5+x6+x7
⟹x1+x2+x3+x4+x5+x6+x7=30×7=210 ------(2)
Subtracting (1) from (2) we get
x6+x7=210−155=55 ----(3)
Therefore, the average of other 2 persons is 2x6+x7=255=27.5
