Answer:
The mean age of 5 people in a room is 28 years. A person enters the room. The mean age is now 32. What is the age of the person who entered the room?
The sum of the 5 people's scores is S. We know:
S/5 = 27
Cross multiply:
S = 140
We're told that:
(140 + a)/6 = 32
Cross multiply:
140 + a = 192
Type this equation into our search engine, we get:
a = 52
