Average of remaining brothers in 1958 = 25 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In the year 1950, average age of six brothers is 15 years.
Youngest brother died in 1957 at the age of 12 years.
Find: Average of remaining Brothers in 1958.
Solution:
Let sum of ages of brothers be x.
In 1950, x/6 = 15
So x = 90
Youngest brother died in 1957 at the age of 12.
His age in 1950 would be 7 less than 12. Therefore 5 years.
Sum of remaining brothers in 1950 = 90 - 5 = 85.
All brothers would be 8 years more than what they were in 1950.
Sum of ages of remaining brothers in 1958 = 85 + (5 * 8) = 85 + 40 = 125
Average of remaining brothers in 1958 = 125 / 5 = 25 years.
