The average age of 11 players of a cricket is decreased by two month when two of them aged 17 years and 20 years are replaced by two reserves . the average of the reserves is ?
-
- 17 years 1 month
- 17 years 7 month
- 17 years 11 months
- 18 years 3 months
Correct Option: B
Decrease in sum of age = 11 x 2 months
= 1 year 10 months
Total age of reserves = (17 + 20 ) years - (1 year 10 month)
= 35 years 2 months
Average age of the reserves = (35 years 2 months ) / 2
= 17 years 7 months
