Explanation
The average of the 15 students together with the teacher is 15 years, and this is 2 years more than the students' own average, so the students' average is 13 years. Sum of students' ages = 15 × 13 = 195 years. Sum of all 16 people = 16 × 15 = 240 years. Teacher's age = 240 − 195 = 45 years.15 छात्रों और अध्यापक की मिलाकर औसत आयु 15 वर्ष है, और यह छात्रों की अपनी औसत आयु से 2 वर्ष अधिक है, अतः छात्रों की औसत आयु 13 वर्ष है। छात्रों की आयु का योग = 15 × 13 = 195 वर्ष। सभी 16 व्यक्तियों की आयु का योग = 16 × 15 = 240 वर्ष। अध्यापक की आयु = 240 − 195 = 45 वर्ष।More Mathematical Reasoning and Aptitude questions
