Answer 2

The average age of people in India has increased from 21.3 years in 1951 to  21.8 in 1994.

• Because of rapid increase in population, the average age of India is increasing.
• The age group which are more in number are generally of youth who are in between 20-25.
• Average age is increasing, but the life expectancy of people is decreasing due to poor lifestyle of people.

• However, from the year 1951 and 1994, the average age has not really changes much. It has changed from 21.3 in 1951 to 21.6 in 1994. So, it was just changes by 0.6.

Hence, the average year between the 1994 and 1951 is increased by 0.3.
