Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a group of 6 friends, the average age is 22 years. If one friend leaves and the average age becomes 23 years, what is the age of the friend who left?
Correct Answer: 17
  • Step 1: Calculate the total age of the 6 friends by multiplying the average age by the number of friends. Total age = 6 friends * 22 years = 132 years.
  • Step 2: Calculate the total age of the remaining 5 friends after one friend leaves. The new average age is 23 years, so Total age = 5 friends * 23 years = 115 years.
  • Step 3: Find the age of the friend who left by subtracting the total age of the remaining friends from the total age of the original group. Age of friend who left = 132 years - 115 years = 17 years.
  • Average Calculation – Understanding how to calculate the average age and how it changes when a member leaves the group.
  • Total Age Calculation – Calculating the total age of a group based on the average and the number of members.
  • Difference in Averages – Recognizing how the average age changes when one member is removed and how to find the age of that member.
