Example #2

The average weight of A, B, and C is 55 kg. While the average weight of B, D, and E is 57 kg. What is the average weight of A, B, C, D, E?

  1. 55 Kg.
  2. 57 Kg.
  3. 59 Kg.
  4. Inadequate Data

Show Answer Show How to Solve Open Rough Workspace

Answer: Option (D)
How to Solve
Step 1: At First total weight of ( A + B + C ) = ( 55 X 3 ) = 165 kg and Total weight of ( B + D + E ) = ( 57 x 3 ) = 171 kg.
Step 2: Total weight of ( A + 2 B + C + D + E ) = ( 165 + 171 ) = 336 kg.
Note: So, to find the average weight of A B C D and E, we need to know B’s weight. Which is not given here. So the data is inadequate.

Example #3

There are two section X and Y of a college, consisting of 36 and 44 students respectively. If the average weight of section X is 40 Kg and that of section Y is 35 Kg. Find the average weight of the whole College?

  1. 37.25 Kg.
  2. 38.75 Kg.
  3. 37.75 Kg.
  4. 36.55 Kg.

Answer: Option (A)
How to Solve
Step 1: At first the total students in that college are ( X + Y ) = ( 36 + 44 ) = 80.
Step 2: The total weight of both the section of the college is ( 36 x 40 + 44 x 35 ) = 2980
So, Average weight of the whole college is = 2980 / 80 = 37.25 Kg.

Example #4

Find the average of all the numbers between 6 and 34 which are divisible by 5.

  1. 20
  2. 25
  3. 22
  4. 30

Show Answer Show How to Solve Open Rough Workspace

Answer: Option (A)
How to Solve
Step 1: 10 + 15 + 20 + 25 + 30 which are divisible by 5 in between 6 and 34
So average of number is 10 + 15 + 20 + 25 + 30 / 5 = 100 / 5 = 20.
