The average age of 4 members of a family is 25 yr. If head of the family is included in this group, then average age increases by 20%. Find out the age of the head?
Explanation
Here we can use the formula
According to the question,
Sum of 4 members age (A=25, N=4)
⇒S=25 X 4 =100
Later, Head of the family included, Average increases by 20% (so A=30, N=5)
So, sum of 5 members age
⇒S=30 X 5 =150-100
Now,
The age of the head =(sum of 4 members age)-(Sum of 5 members age)
=150-100
=50 yr.
Hence, Option B is correct.
