The average age of four children in a family is 12 years. If the spacing between their ages is 4 years, the age of the youngest child is ?
-
- 6 years
- 7 years
- 8 years
- 9 years
Correct Option: A
Let the age of youngest child be y.
so from question y + (y + 4) + (y + 8) + (y + 12) = 4 x 12
⇒ 4y + 24= 48
∴ y = 6 years
