Here are the solutions to the above questions. Some questions have alternate solutions.

Sol 1. (b)

Let the sixth number is k , 5th number is k+6 and 7th number is k+5.

According to the question 

12 x 42 = (4 x 44)+(k+k+6+k+5)+(5 x 40)

504 = 176+3k+11+200

⇒k = 39

Desired average = =44.50

Alternate :

Average of the last 5 numbers is less than the total average by 2 and the average of the first four numbers is more than total average by 2. This will be managed by other  numbers.

According to the question

(42 x 3) = (4 x 2) + k + (k+6) + (k+5) + {5 x (-2)}

117 = 3k

⇒k = 39

Desired average ==44.50 

Sol 2. (b)

Let the initial number of students = k 

According to the question

68.5k + 72.2 + 70.8 + 70.3 + 66.7 = 68.8 (k+4)

68.5k + 280 = 68.8k +275.2

⇒ k = 16

Alternate :

Weights of 4 new students is 3.7, 2.3, 1.8 kg more and 1.8 kg less than the average weight of students while the average weight of the class increases by 0.3 kg. All this will be managed by the new students’ weight.

According to the question

(0.3)(k+4) = 3.7+2.3+1.8-1.8

0.3k + 1.2 = 6

⇒ k = 16

Sol 3. (b)

Let the numbers are a, b and c.

According to the question

168+174+180

a+b+c =261

Desired average = 261/3= 87

Sol 4. (a)

Let the number of students in class B = k

⇒ k+k+10 = 110

⇒ k = 50

20% = 1/5

Let the average score of the students of class A = 5k and the average score of the students of class B = 6k

According to the question 

60(5k) + 50(6k) = 110 x 72

⇒ 300k + 300k = 7920

⇒ k = 13.2

the average score of the students of class A = 5 x 13.2 = 66

Sol 5. (c)

Let the average of all the four numbers = A and the last number = k

According to the question

A/3=k - 19

⇒ A = 3k -57              

3k - A = 57                                  ……..(1)

And Sum of first three numbers = 12 x 3 = 36

⇒ =A

4A - k = 36                     …..(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 4 and add in equation (2)

⇒ 12k-4A+4A-k = 228+36

⇒ k = 24

Sol 6.  (c)

Total marks of the students = 68 x 40 = 2720

Actual total marks of the students = 2720-48-64+84+46 = 2738

Desired average =2738/40= 68.45

Alternate :

Increase in total marks = 84+46-48-64 = 18

Increase in average = 18/40= 0.45

Desired average = 68+0.45 = 68.45

Sol 7. (c) 

Ratio Girls to Boys  = 45 % : 55%

                                = 9 : 11

Let the number of girls = 9 unit

And number of boys = 11 unit 

Total marks of the class = (54 x 9) + (11 x 46) = 1984

Desired average = = 49.6

Alternate :

Ratio Girls to Boys  = 45 % : 55%

                               = 9 : 11

Let the ratio of y : z = k : m Then,

Where D is the difference of the number of boys and girls

D = 54-46 = 8

k : m = 9 : 11

We know that 54-z = y+46 = x

x = 54 - 4.4 = 3.6 +46 = 49.6

Here, x is nothing but the average marks of the class.

Sol 8. (c)

Average of 27 numbers is zero, clearly the sum of 27 numbers is equal to zero.

So there can be total 26 number more than zero and the 27th number will be equal to the sum of 26 numbers but with the negative sign.{(i.e 27th number = -(sum of 26 numbers)}

Sol 9. (b)

Let the age of the younger member = k.

According to the question

= 38

2k+8 = 38(7-5)-50

k = 9

Sol 10. (d)

Let the number = k 

Its reciprocal = 1k

According to the question

Sol 11 (a)

Average of n odd numbers is always n.

Sol 12. (c) 

Average of n even numbers is always (n+1). 

Sol 13. (d)

First 10 prime numbers = 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29

First 10 2 digit prime numbers = 11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43

Desired average == 13.5

Sol 14. (d)

Average of 1088 numbers is zero, clearly the sum of 1088 numbers is equal to zero. So there can be total 1087 number less than zero and the 1088th number will be equal to the sum of 1087 numbers but with the positive sign.{(i.e 1088th number = (sum of 1087 numbers)}

Sol 15. (b)

Sum of the ages of four brothers = 15 x 4 = 60 

Let the age of father = k

According to the question

= 20

⇒ k = 40

Alternate :

Average age of four brothers = 15

Increase in total average = 5

Increase in total age = 5 x 5 = 25

This age increase is balanced by father so age of father must be = 15+25 = 40

Sol 16.(a)

Average of the squares of ‘n’ natural numbers 

= 11

Alternate :

Required average =   = 11

Sol 17. (b)

Sum of a and b (a+b) = 2 x 36 = 72

Sum of b and c (b+c) = 2 x 42 = 84

Desired difference = 84-72 = 12

Sol 18. (c)

Sum of first 8 multiples of six = 6 (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8)= 216

Desired average = 216/8= 27

Sol 19. (a)

Sum of numbers from 1 to 100 = = 5050

Now, excluding the number 1 each and every number beginning from 2 to 100 are prime or either composite.

Sum of all the prime and composite numbers upto 100 = 5050-1 = 5049

Desired average = 5049/99= 51

Sol 20. (a)

Total weight of 12 articles = 12 x 18 = 216

Let the weight of new articles = k

According to the question 

= 18-0.500

216 + k = 17.5 x 13

⇒k = 11.5

Alternate :

Average weight of the articles = 18

Reduction in average weight = 0.5 kg

Total reduction = 13 x 0.5 = 6.5 kg

This decrease in weight is balanced by the third article = 18-6.5 = 11.5

Sol 21.(d)

Let the average of first three numbers = 4A

the 4th number = A

Sum of first three numbers = 4A x 3 = 12A

According to the question

= 52

A = 16

Average of first three numbers = 4 x 16 = 64

Sol 22. (a)

All the prime numbers between 21 to 50 = 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43 and 47

⇒ Desired average = = 35.85 ≈ 35.9

Sol 23. (c)

Average of the given numbers = = 69

When each number is divided by 23, average = 69/23= 3

Sol 24. (b)

Average of ‘n’ odd numbers is always ‘n’.

Sol 25. (b)

First 15 whole numbers are 0,1,2,3,4 ….. 14

Sum of the numbers from 1-14 =

105

Desired average = 105/15= 7

Sol 26. (d)

Sum of first three = 3 x 16 = 48

Sum of last three = 3 x 15 = 45

First term - Last term= 48-45 = 3

First term = 3 + 21 = 24
