Answer 1

Let Arun's weight = x kg

As per the given data, 

According to Arun, his age is 65 < x < 72

According to Arun's brother, 60 < X < 70.

According to Arun's mother, X ≤ 68                  {Key word: cannot be}

The values satisfying all the above conditions are 66, 67 and 68.

 Required average = (66 + 67 + 68)/3 = 201/3 = 67 kg
