Question Detail

If the average marks of three batches of 55, 60 and 45 students respectively is 50, 55, 60, then the average marks of all the students is

54.48
54.68
54.60
54.58

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\frac{(55 \times 50) +(60 \times 55) +(45 \times 60) }{55 + 60 + 45}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
\frac{8750}{160} = 54.68
\end{aligned}

1. Average of all prime numbers between 30 to 50

37
37.8
39
39.8

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Prime numbers between 30 and 50 are:
31, 37, 41, 43, 47

Average of prime numbers between 30 to 50 will be
\begin{aligned}
(\frac{31+37+41+43+47}{5}) = \frac{199}{5} = 39.8
\end{aligned}

2. The average age of husband, wife and their child 3 years ago was 27 years and that of wife and the child 5 years ago was 20 years. The present age of the husband is

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Sum of the present ages of husband, wife and child = (27 * 3 + 3 * 3) years = 90 years.

Sum of the present ages of wife and child = (20 * 2 + 5 * 2) years = 50 years.

Husband's present age = (90 - 50) years = 40 years

3. Find the sum of first 30 natural numbers

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Sum of n natural numbers
\begin{aligned}
= \frac{n(n+1)}{2}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{30(30+1)}{2} = \frac{30(31)}{2} = 465
\end{aligned}

4. The average of four consecutive odd numbers is 24. Find the largest number.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the numbers are x, x+2, x+4, x+6, then
\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)}{4} = 24
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{4x+12)}{4} = 24
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> x+3 = 24 => x = 21
\end{aligned}

So largest number is 21 + 6 = 27
