The average age of a group of 10 friends is 15 yr. If one friend leaves the group, the average becomes 16 yr. Find the age of the friend who left the group.
-
- 5 yr
- 4 yr
- 6 yr
- None of these
Correct Option: C
Age of friend left = Previous average of the age - Number of persons present x Increase in average age
= 15 - ( 10-1 ) x ( 16-15 )
= 15- 9 x 1
= 15 - 9 = 6yr
