Question

    There are three distinct numbers ‘u’, ‘v’ and

    ‘w’. If, u = 240, (u + v) = 540 and (w – v) = 60, then find the average of u, v and w.
    A 310 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 280 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 270 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Given, u = 240, (u + v) = 540 and (w – v) = 60 Therefore, v = 540 – 240 = 300 And, w = 300 + 60 = 360 Required average = (240 + 300 + 360)/3 = 900/3 = 300
