Practicing Success
Out of 50 teachers of a school, one teacher retires and in place of him a new teacher 35 years old joins. As a result of it average age of the teachers reduces by 0.2 years. Age of the retired teacher is : |
40 years 45 years 48 years 50 years |
45 years |
Age of new teacher = 35 years Total age decreased = 50 ×0.2 = 10 years. ∴ Age of the retired teacher = Age of new teacher + Total age decreased Age of the retired teacher = 35 + 10 = 45 years |
