    years. If a 38 years old coach joins the team, the average increases by 1 year. Find x% of 500.
    A 80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 75 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 90 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Total age of players = 18(x + 4)
    According to question,
    [18(x + 4) + 38] = (18 + 1)(x + 4 + 1)
    18x + 72 + 38 = 19x + 95
    19x - 18x = 110 - 95
    x = 15
    So, 15% of 500 = 75
