The average age of the mother and her six children is 12 years which is reduced by 5 years if the age of the mother is excluded. How old is the mother

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the average weight of the 59 students be A.
So the total weight of the 59 of them will be 59*A.

The questions states that when the weight of this student who left is added, the total weight of the class = 59A + 45
When this student is also included, the average weight decreases by 0.2 kgs

\begin{aligned}
\frac{59A + 45}{60} = A - 0.2
\end{aligned}

=> 59A + 45 = 60A - 12
=> 45 + 12 = 60A - 59A
=> A = 57

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
= \frac {7(1+2+3+...+10)}{10}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
= \frac {7(10(10+1))}{10 \times 2}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
= \frac {7(110)}{10 \times 2} = 38.5
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the numbers are x, x+2, x+4, x+6, then
\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)}{4} = 24
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{4x+12)}{4} = 24
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> x+3 = 24 => x = 21
\end{aligned}

So largest number is 21 + 6 = 27

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
Average = \frac{3(1+2+3+4+5)}{5} = \frac{45}{5} = 9
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
Average = (\frac{10+15+20+25+30}{5}) = \frac{100}{5} =20
\end{aligned}
