1. 50
2. 60
3. 70
4. 80

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 60

GIven :

Age of Raman's wife = 50 years 

Age of Raman is 40% more than his wife 

Formula used :

Average = total value of all observations/Number of observations 

Calculations :

Raman's age = 50 + 40% of 50 = 70 years

Total sum of the age of Raman and his wife = 50 + 70 = 120 years 

Average of their age = 120/2

⇒ 60 years 

∴ The average of age of Raman and his wife is 60 years
