Important examples of Average Questions
Solution of Average Quiz
1 | Exp. Average is the sum of all the quantities divided by the total number of quantities (20+25+30+35+x)/5.This is given as 24, hence, 24= (20+25+30+35+x)/5.Solving it we have 24*5 = 20+25+30+35+x, which gives x=10. |
2 | Exp. Total weight of 20 students = Average*20 (25*20) = 500kg.Average weight of 19 students (excluding Vinay) = 24.8kg (25 - 0.2).Total weight of 19 students (excluding Vinay) = 24.8*19 = 471.2kg.Hence, weight of Vinay = 28.80kg (500 - 471.2). |
3 | Exp. Total cost = 59*16 = 944.Cost of items returned= 4*60 (Average of 4 items is 60) + 39 + 49 + 40368Remaining number of items99Cost of remaining items576576New average = 576/9 = 64. |
4 | Exp. Total weight of 18 students= 18*15 = 270kg.Average weight of 17 students (one student leaves the class)= 15 - 0.8 = 14.2kg.Total weight of 17 students= 14.2*17 = 241.4kg.Weight of the student who left the class= 270kg - 241.4kg = 28.6kg. |
5 | Exp. Sum of marks in Mathematics, Physics and ChemistryTRUESum of marks in Physics, Chemistry and BiologyTRUEHence, Marks in Biology - Marks in MathematicsTRUESum of marks in Mathematics and BiologyTRUEHence, Twice the marks in BiologyTRUEMarks in biology = 180/2 = 90. |
6 | Exp. The average height of any two of them exceeds half the height of the third by 80 cm; this means they all have the same height.Average height of Brijesh and RohitAverage height of Brijesh and Rohit= half the height of Ankit + 80cm.Hence, height of AnkitTRUE |
7 | Exp. Let number of women = x.Total salary given to men= 50*3000 = 150,000.Total salary given to women= 10,000*x.Total salary of all employeesHence, (50+x)*8000= 150,000 + 10,000*x.Solving this, we get x = 125. |
8 | |
9 | Exp. Sum of ages of 4 men = 4*34 = 136.Average age of 5 men (including the man who joined the group) = 34 + 2 = 36.Sum of ages of 5 men = 5*36 = 180.Age of the new man = 180 - 136 = 44. |
10 | Exp. Ratio of number of students in P, Q and R is 8 : 24 : 27 (1*8 : 3*8 : 9*3).Average marks = (100*8 + 60*24 + 80*27)/(8 + 24 + 27) = 75. |
11 | Exp. Sum of all their weightsTRUEWeight of AakashAlso, three times weight of AakashHence, weight of Aakash= 80kg.Similarly, weight of Sunny= 80kg.Average weight of Aakash and Sunny= 80kg. |
12 | Exp. Sum of ages of 25 students = 25*20 = 500.Average age of students and teacher combined (26 people) = 21 (20 + 1).Sum of ages of students and teacher combined = 21*26 = 546.Hence, age of teacher = 546 - 500 = 46. |
13 | Exp. Let x be the average in 16 innings.Total runs scored after 16 innings= 16xTotal runs score after 17 innings= 85 + 16xAverage= (85 + 16x)/17, which is also equal to x+3.Hence, x = 34 and Average = 37. |
14 | Exp. Let average weight = x.Sum of weights = 16x.Average weight when new person included instead of person having weight 60kg = x + 1.Sum of new weights= 16*(x+1).Extra weightWeight of new personTRUE |
15 | Exp. Let average height = x.Sum of heights= 50x.New AverageNew sum of heights= 50*(x-1).Difference50Height of new studentTRUE |
16 | Exp. New Average120120 |
17 | Exp. Sum of 12 numbers = 12*15 = 180.Sum of 12 numbers when 5 is added to each = 180 + 12*5 = 240.Average of new set = 240/12 = 20. |
18 | Exp. Sum of 8 numbers = 8*14 = 112.Sum of 8 numbers after subtracting 4 from each = 112 - (4*8) = 80.New average = 80/10 = 8. |
19 | Exp. Sum of temp. of Monday, Tuesday, WednesdayTRUESum of temp. of Tuesday, Wednesday and ThursdayTRUETemp. on thursday43Hence, sum of temp. of Tuesday, WednesdayTRUETemp. on Monday = 135 - 83 = 52. |
20 | Exp. Sum of ages two years agoTRUESum of ages at present (excluding the new child)TRUELet age of child = x.Average at present= 25 (same average).Hence, age of child |
