W1 = avg weight initially
25 * W1 = weight of 25 persons in itially
Let weight of the man who leaves = W
remaining 24 persons weight is = 25 W1 - W
When new man comes in total weight = 25 W1 - W + 70
Average weight of the new set of 25 persons = (25 W1 - W +70) / 25
= W1 + 1 one more than previous average
=> 25W1 - W +70 = 25 W1 + 25
=> W = 45 Kg
