After a month, by what amount did the average weight of Reena got reduced when compared to Seema? Correct Answer 5
Given:
The weight of Seema was 15 kg more than Reena one month ago
The weight of Reena was 5 kg more than the weight of Seema after one month
Formula:
Average of n numbers a1, a2, ..., an = (a1 + a2 + ... + an)/n
Calculation:
Let the weights of Seema and Reena before a month be x + 25 and x respectively
Let the weights of Seema and Reena after a month be y and y + 5 respectively
Average weight of Seema = (x + y + 15)/2
Average weight of Reena = (x + y + 5)/2
Difference in average weights of Reena and Seema = –
⇒ 10/2 = 5
