  1. The average age of 9 students and their teacher is 16 years. The average age of the first four students is 19 years and that of the last five is 10 years. The teacher’s age is
    1. 36 years
    2. 34 years
    3. 30 years
    4. 28 years
Correct Option: B

Here , The average age of 9 students and teacher = 16 years
Total age of 9 students and teacher = 16 × 10
The average age of the first four students = 19 years
Total age of the first four students = 19 × 4
And the average age of the last five students = 10 years
Total age of the last five students = 5 × 10
∴ Teacher’s age = 16 × 10 – 19 × 4 – 5 × 10
Teacher’s age = 160 – 76 – 50 = 34 years
