Question

The average age of five members is 27. If one of them is excluded the average decreases by 2. The age of excluded person is:

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the age of excluded person be x

Average age of 5 members= 27

Sum of the ages of 5 members = 27×5

= 135

Now if one member is excluded the no. of person becomes 4.

So according to question,

(135-x)/4 = 27-2

135-x= 25×4

-X= 100-135

x= 35 yrs
