      the weight of 4 teachers is also included, then the new average weight of each person (teacher + student) in the class becomes 40 kg. Find the average weight of the four teachers.
      A 20 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 18 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 50 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 25 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Let the average weight of the four teachers be 'x' kg. So, total weight of the four teachers = 4 ├Ч x = '4x' kg. ATQ: 35 ├Ч 8 + '4x' = 40 ├Ч (8 + 4) Or, 280 + 4x = 40 ├Ч 12 Or, 280 + 4x = 480 Or, 4x = 480 - 280 = 200 Or, x = 200 ├╖ 4 = 50 Therefore, the average weight of the four teachers is 50 kg.
