1. 67 kg.
2. 68 kg.
3. 69 kg.
4. Data inadequate
According to Arun, 65 < x < 72
According to Arun’s brother, 60 < x < 70.
According to Arun’s mother, x <= 68
The values satisfying all the above conditions are 66, 67 and 68.
1. 97
2. 92
3. 98
4. 94
5. 95
previous marks of two subjects = 98 + 108 = 206
marks after revaluation = 138 + 132 = 270
Increased marks = 270 – 206 = 64
Average after revaluation = (696 + 64)/ 8 = 95
1. 120
2. 111
3. 117
4. Cannot be determined
5. None of these
Ajay’s score = 63 + 30 = 93, Therefore
Rahul’s Score = 93 -15 = 78
Manish’s score = 78 – 10 = 68
Suresh’s score = 189 – (78 + 68) = 43
The sum of Manish’s and Suresh’s score = 43 + 68 = 111
1. 19 years
2. 19 years 6 months
3. 20 years
4. 20 years 6 months
5. None of these
Total age of 40 students = 40 * 18 = 720
Average age of 60 students = 18.5 * 60 = 1110 years
Average Age of 20 students = (1110 -720 )/20 = 390/20 = 19.5
Therefore Average age of newly admitted studens = 19 years 6 months
