Option 1 : 23, 21

It is given that the ratio of boys and girls is = 2 : 1

Let the number of boys is 2X and number of girls is X

⇒ 3X = 252

⇒ X = 84

Boys = 168, girls = 84

Let K girls enrolled later then ratio = 1 : 1

⇒ 168/(84 + K) = 1/1

⇒ K = 84

Now average,

/336 = 22 ----(1)

And it is given that,

Girls(168)/168 + 2 = boys(168)/168 ----(2)

By solving these two equations,

Girls(168) = 3528

Boys(168) = 3864

Average age of girls = 3528/168 = 21

Average age of boys = 3864/168 = 23
