Test: Average- 5 - Question 6

The average age of the group having 3 members is 84. One more person joins the group and now the average becomes 80. Now a fifth person comes whose age is 3 years more than that of fourth person replaces the first person. After this the average age of the group becomes 79. What is the age of the first person?

Detailed Solution for Test: Average- 5 - Question 6

Let the ages of these are A, B, C, D, E

So A+B+C = 84*3 = 252

And A+B+C+D = 80*4 = 320

So D = 320-252 = 68,

so E = 68+3 = 71

Now B+C+D+E = 79*4 = 316

(A+B+C+D) – (B+C+D+E) = 320- 316

So A-E = 4, so

A = 71+4 = 75
