Question:

Radha and Mohan's average age is 75 years. The average age of Radha, Mohan and Jay is 55 years. What is the age of Jay?

Options:

14 years

15 years

16 years

18 years

Correct Answer:

15 years

Explanation:

Average age of Radha & Mohan = 75 years

Total age of Radha & Mohan = 75 × 2 = 150 years

Average age of Radha, Mohan & Jay = 55 years

Total age of Radha, Mohan & Jay = 55 × 3 = 165 years

Jay age = (Total age of Radha, Mohan & Jay) - (Total age of Radha & Mohan) = 165 - 150 = 15 years
