Question
Average age of a class of 37 students is 12
years. Average age of the class is increased by 18 months if the age of the teacher is included. Find the age of the teacher.Solution
Sum of the ages of all the students in the class = 37 × 12 = 444 years
Sum of the ages of the students along with teacher = 38 × 13.5 = 513 years
So the age of the teacher = 513 – 444 = 69 years
