Option 1 : 15 years

Given:

A class has 20 boys and 20 girls.

The average age of girls in the class = 16 years

The average age of boys in the class = 17 years

Formula Used:

Sum of all numbers = Average of numbers × Number of terms

Calculation:

Sum of ages of girls = Average × Numbers of girls

⇒ 20 × 16

⇒ 320

Sum of ages of boys = Average × Numbers of boys

⇒ 20 × 17

⇒ 340

One girl and one boy leave the class so the number of boys is 19 and number of girls is 19.

The new average age of the girls = 16 – 1 = 15

The new average age of the boys = 17 – 2 = 15

The new sum of ages of girls = New average × Numbers of girls

⇒ 19 × 15

⇒ 285

The new sum of ages of boys = New average × Numbers of boys

⇒ 19 × 15

⇒ 285

Total new age of boys and girls = 285 + 285 = 570

New average of whole class = Sum of ages of all/total number of students

⇒ 570/38

⇒ 15

∴ The new average age of the whole class is 15 years.
