Question 1 of 15
1.
The average of weight of three men A,B and C is 84 kg. Another man D joins the group and the average now becomes 80 kg. If another man E, whose weight is 3 kg more than that of D, replaces A, then the average weight of B,C,D and E becomes 79 kg. The weight of A is
Explanation:
Correct Answer is: c)
A + B + C = 3 x 84 = 252; A + B + C + D = 4 x 80 = 320 => D = 320 – 252 = 68 and E = 68 + 3 = 71
Now B + C + D + E = 4 x 79 = 316; B + C + D = 316 – 71 = 245
Therefore, A = 320 – 245 = 75kg
Explanation:
Correct Answer is: c)
A + B + C = 3 x 84 = 252; A + B + C + D = 4 x 80 = 320 => D = 320 – 252 = 68 and E = 68 + 3 = 71
Now B + C + D + E = 4 x 79 = 316; B + C + D = 316 – 71 = 245
Therefore, A = 320 – 245 = 75kg
