    Solution

    Total sum of ages: The average age of Mohan, his wife, son, and daughter is 24 years, so their total sum of ages is 24×4=96 yrs Mohan's age = M Wife's age = M−5 Son's age = M−30 Daughter's age = M−33 Sum equation: M+(M−5)+(M−30)+(M−33)=96 for Mohan's age: 4M−68=96 M=41 years (Mohan's age) Daughter's age: 41−33=8 years. Average age of Mohan and his daughter: Sum = 41+8 = 49 Average = 49/2 =24.5 years. The average age of Mohan and his daughter is 24.5 years.
