      Question

      The average of two numbers β€˜P’ and β€˜Q’ is 480

      such that they are in the ratio 5:7 respectively. Another number β€˜R’ is 60 more than β€˜Q’ and fourth number β€˜S’ is 50% of the β€˜P’. Find the average of β€˜R’ and β€˜S’.
      A 390 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 410 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 420 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Sum of β€˜P’ and β€˜Q’ = 480 Γ— 2 = 960
      Therefore,
      β€˜P’ = 960 Γ— (5/12) = 400
      β€˜Q’ = 960 – 400 = 560
      β€˜R’ = 560 + 60 = 620
      β€˜S’ = 0.5 Γ— 400 = 200
      Required average = {(620 + 200)/2} = 410
