      person’s weight is 24 kg more than the lightest person’s weight. If the average weight of the rest two persons is 44 kg, then find the weight of the heaviest person.
      A 60 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 38 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 53 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 59 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 55 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The sum of the weight of 4 persons = 35 × 4 = 140 kg Let the weight of the lightest person = ‘x’ kg The weight of the heaviest person = (x + 24) kg The sum of the weight of the remaining two persons = 44 × 2 = 88 kg According to the question, x + x + 24 + 88 = 140 2x = 28 x = 14 The weight of the heaviest person = 14 + 24 = 38 kg
